Quilting Bees and Quilting Parties | Dakota Datebook

Learn how quilt-making has been traditional in North Dakota since territorial days and continues today through quilt guilds in this audio clip from the Dakota Datebook series. In bygone days, quilting-bees and quilting-parties combined work with recreation as women gathered to make quilts for a bride-to-be, for a housewarming, or for a hope chest.
