Quilt of States

The "Quilt of States" is a visual way to understand how the United States is divided into different regions based on shared characteristics like geography, culture, or history. Imagine each state as a piece of fabric in a quilt, with neighboring states sewn together that have similarities. This quilt demonstrates regional patterns—such as the Midwest's farming areas or the Southwest's deserts—highlighting how states group together naturally or culturally, shaping regional identities across the country.
