A long time coming

Don't judge me! I'm sorry I didn't put up my project when I said I would. But it's better late than never, right?




World War 2 Quilt



This quilt was made for a project for my History class. The project was a photo project, in which we had to pick a topic (that fits in the time frame: America after the Civil War to present day), and then we had to write captions for each of the pictures, and how the thing in the picture formed your topic.


My topic was the War Effort on the American homefront during World War 2. The sub-topics of my ten pictures are:


~ Women in the Workplace
~ War Bonds
~ Movies
~ Propaganda
~ Rubber/ Metal Collecting
~ Canteens
~ Food Rationing
~ Rationed Items
~ Production Corps of the Red Cross
~ Air-Raid/ Blackout Drills


The quilt block is also from the 1940s, but was published in the 2008 book "Victory Quilts" By Eleanor Burns.


NOTE: I received a 100% for it.

I also have another project in the works, so watch out for that!
