    All hand made quilts are special.

    I have only just found this channel and would like to add my comment. I would like to agree about the words used in the introduction as being rude. I was part of a UK Quilt Group who visited the USA in 2001 and had the privilege of seeing quilts that the ladies produced whilst fleeing from slavery. They were bright and beautiful and produced, under what must have been the most horrendous circumstances. I am a non-conventional quilter and had to remind my first quilt teacher, that if you want perfect quilts then you will have to buy the mass produced kind from a department store.

    Hits you right on the face that the video starts with a negative comment. Shame on you. These quilts are beautifully authentic, sewn with love, care and determination, and wonderfully creative. They are rightly admired and revered by millions! Please re-edit this video!

    Wow. Love our history sewed into these quilts. When will we talk openly about it all. Thanks to the quilt makers, and the savers.

    Yes you are correct..first comment a negative intro for great artistic flair ..
    I hope he PAYED the Quilters for each Quilt he has taken. Its the works of art that should Always be paid for. I Quilt too. People want one of my Full Double bed Quilt that has 3000 hand cut hand sewn pieces for $100.
    Yep.

      I know, why even go there and start with every tiny issue someone could find with quilts that are so amazing! No one would do that to Picasso, start with a critique of his brush stroke or color choice smh.

      That’s what struck me in the first few seconds too - it’s just so inbred to denegrate before praising. So shocking! These quilts are beautifully authentic and wonderfully creative. Yes, start there!

    Its me again.
    Question: Why arent the people who invented jazz playing the jazz in this and several other vids about the Amazing Gees Bend Quilts and other Quilters just like them? The jazz quilters are doin their thang why aint the jazz bows out there providing the musical support. This is the 4th vid where this is the case? Just a question and a wonderment.

    "From Heart to Hand: African-American Quilts from the Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts" opens in just ONE WEEK! Hear directly from a few of the featured quilters in this video courtesy of the American Quilter's Society: ruclips.net/video/9GurMFb66DA/видео.html.

      Please re-edit the start of this video it’s disgraceful that you start it at that point! You clearly are showing disrespect to these wonderful quilters and this truly authentic, beautifully crafted quilting art form. I am dismayed by your lack of insight!

    I wonder was he the one who took the quilts and never came back. Notice the say, he, but not who he is.
