I am celebrating Black History Month and Super Bowl Sunday with my quilt Stand Out in the Crowd. It makes me happy to see two African American starting quarterbacks in the Super Bowl. During my lifetime, common wisdom said we were not smart enough. Common wisdom was wrong.


I have been the “first black” many things. It’s not easy doing something that most people think cannot be done. It’s okay to stand out in the crowd. It’s called progress.
