Title: A Stitch in Time—A Digital Quilt A quilt is one of the few personal items people brought over from Europe. Made by hand--often collaboratively--using familiar materials such as scraps of clothing, quilts are both personal and communal objects. They not only serve as warm blankets, but also reminders of friends and family. Quilts can be works of art as well as stories through pictures. They also tell a story about their creators and about the historical and cultural context of their creation (quilting bees, historical and personal events) through the choices made in design, material, and content.
