Dixie, your site address didn't work for me. I know what you mean by Gees Bend style but was curious to see the web site.

Thanks, TC, very good site -- if one can't be inspired by that bunch of quilts, one is obviously an applique quilter. Time to join this swap.

I remember studying about the ladies from Gee's Bends and it was so interesting. This might be a fun swap to join....thinking strongly about it.
