Selma's Unity Quilt


Guest photographer Christine Weerts visited the community quilting bee
 at St. Paul's Episcopal Church Saturday and  shared pictures of Selma's Unity Quilt.
 Led by Birmingham's "March Quilts" creators Bib & Tucker Sew-Op,  individuals, churches
 and organizations sewed quilt squares representing unity. 

The squares will be joined into a quilt to commemorate the 50th anniversary
 of the Selma-to-Montgomery voting rights march
and carried in the Unity March on Sunday, March 1.

The quilt will remain in Selma on display.
