- Description:
- Print the picture of the quilting bee at Gee's Bend during the Depression era. Discuss the picture, talk about the background: the floor, the materials they have, and what they are doing. This activity is a great lesson to introduce the activities that many women did during the Depression era as a recreation activity as well as a means of making quilts for the winter or to sell/trade.
