Gee's Bend


Gee's Bend! What a wonderful story of some wonderful people! Here is a quilt that I did from a kit that is available here at Aunt Mary's. If you have not read or heard of these wonderful women and their story go to http://www.quiltsofgeesbend.com/ Read about Mary Lee Bendolf, who is the designer of this quilt. I met her at a gallery opening is Seattle. She has such a beautiful heart. I will never forget her. We could all learn a few lessons about life from her.
Here is one of the beautiful kits that are available. I think they are very well done. In the one I did, there was plenty of the fabric (even to make a few mistakes!) and a great pattern. They even throw in a little history about Gee's Bend.
