Mary Lee Bendolph is a master quiltmaker from Gee’s Bend, a small, remote, black community located along a curve in the Alabama River southwest of Selma. Here, many of the residents can trace their ancestry back to the enslaved people who worked on the nearby Pettway Plantation. Quilts have been an important part of life throughout that history and carry forward a proud tradition of artistry made for home and family. This June, Mary Lee Bendolph’s works will be presented alongside other quiltmakers and artists spanning several generations from Gee’s Bend and Rehoboth, Alabama, in “Souls Grown Deep: Artists of the African American South.” This exhibition will mark the debut of our recent acquisition of 24 works form the Souls Grown Deep Foundation.

“The Quiltmaker’s Gift” by Linda Benton of Ponte Vedra, Florida.
Inspired by the book, The Quiltmaker's Gift by Jeff Brumbeau (Illustrated by Gail de Marcken), this fanciful quilt won the Artistic Merit award. I love how her miniature pieced quilt lies perfectly in her lap, and her Quiltmaker’s soft intensity as she works. Just beautiful!

#HarrietPowers (October 29, 1837 – January 1, 1910) was an #AfricanAmerican #slave, #folkartist, and #quiltmaker from rural #Georgia. She used traditional appliqué techniques to record local legends, Bible stories, and astronomical events on her quilts. Only two of her quilts are known to have survived: Bible Quilt 1886 and Pictorial Quilt 1898. Her quilts are considered among the finest examples of nineteenth-century Southern quilting. Her work is on display at the National Museum of American History in Washington, DC, and the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston, Massachusetts. Powers was born into slavery near Athens, Georgia. Historians say she spent her early life on a plantation owned by John and Nancy Lester in Madison County, Georgia, where it is believed she learned to sew from other slaves or from her mistress. Though an 1895 Chicago Tribune article about the Cotton States and International Expo characterizes Powers as ignorant and illiterate, only learning Bible stories from "others more fortunate", quilt historian Kyra E. Hicks discovered during research for her book This I Accomplish: Harriet Powers' Bible Quilt and Other Pieces a letter written by Powers explaining how she came to be literate and that she learned bible stories, which served as the inspiration for her quilt work storytelling through her own study of the bible. In 1855, at the age of eighteen, Powers married Armstead Powers. They had at least nine children. Harriet's husband, Armstead Powers identified himself as a 'farmhand' in the 1870 census; Harriet is listed as 'keeping house', and three children, Amanda, Leon Joe (Alonzo) and Nancy lived at home. In the 1880s, after being freed at the end of the Civil War, they owned four acres of land and had a small farm. During the 1890s, due to financial difficulty, her husband slowly sold off parcels of their land, defaulted on taxes, and eventually left Harriet and their farm in 1895. Powers never remarried and probably supported herself as a seamstress. For most of her life she lived in Clarke County, mainly in Sandy Creek and Buck Branch. #BlackLivesMatter #BlackArtistsMatter (at U.S. Embassy Singapore) https://www.instagram.com/p/CBMwJMYFlLT/?igshid=zaujylnpg748
Our Waverly Path quilt is the July/August issue of Quiltmaker magazine. The beautiful quilting was done by Ann McKinney of the Florida Quilting Center. The fabric is part of the Jinny Beyer palette from RJR Fabrics. Swipe left to see the quilting up close and the quilt in the magazine. The quilt is named after a beautiful garden with winding paths near my mother and sister’s homes. #bluebearquilts #quiltmaker #quiltmakermag #floridaquiltingcenter #rjrfabrics #jinnybeyerpalette #drunkardspath https://www.instagram.com/p/CAsnJ0gH7ZM/?igshid=18y41c9z8e7mb
