Born into slavery on October 29, 1837, Harriet Powers remains a prominent folk artist with her quilts on display in the National Museum of American History and the Boston Museum of Fine Arts. In honor of her birthday, we're taking inspiration from her traditional applique style and making a community quilt. Whether you're an experienced quilter or this is your first time picking up a needle and thread, you're invited to participate in this creation. Use one of Harriet's designs or create your own to tell a story through this historic medium.
