The Women's Studies program at Auburn University in Alabama has developed "an ongoing interdisciplinary project to study the Quilts of Gee's Bend and develop strategies and materials for making them a part of the cultural education of Alabama’s – and America’s – children." Do take a moment to visit and interact with the site!
