The Underground Railroad Review

The book is easy to follow for making the quilt and history information is written very well.

The Underground Railroad Sampler

The book was everything I thought it would be - comprehensive quilt instructions for various underground railroad blocks.

Undergriund Railroad Sampler

I am a Quilter, and I found this book to be a real Eye opener for what went on during the slavery days. I never knew how Quilts were used as codes to direct the slaves to freedom. This book is a real history lesson, that I am so glad to learn about and be a part in helping with the teaching of the slavery days. I was asked by a teacher to make this quilt. She is going to hang it in her classroom for her 5th grade students to make paper blocks, to match the Quilt. The Quilt tells the story. It's AWESOME, and I really enjoyed making it. Thank you Amazon for having this Quilt Book.
