underground railroad quilts

While nosing around for dresden plates and Marissa's triangles I came across this article that might be of interest.

There has been so much info and misinformation about this subject I thought it might be of interest.

Makes interesting reading.... it truly makes you wonder -- that with all of the historical accounts about slavery that were written in the first half of the 20th century

-- that there is little or no mention of quilt design being used to guide slaves... why in the

1980's it suddenly becomes such a popular line of thinking. Makes the reading fun and interesting though... and I wonder if there will ever be any documentable proof.

Oh well... still fun to read!
