To honor the erased and forgotten lives of enslaved persons in Alabama, join the Mt. Willing Quilters of Lowndes County Community Life Center to help stitch a commemorative name as part of their project, Sew Their Names. Participants may sew either the names discovered in the Samford archives, or those of other enslaved persons connected with their own families—both the enslaved ancestors of members of the Black descendant community and, for descendants of slaveholders, persons whom their families enslaved. Participants may bring fabric with them that has personal significance, or use the fabric provided by the quilters. No previous embroidery or quilting experience is needed. If participants choose to donate the name blocks they embroider, these may be included in future Sew Their Names quilts.
General admission and all programs are free for everyone.
