The Migrant Quilt Project memorializes the migrants who have died in the southern Arizona desert since 2000, when the medical examiner’s office began recording the names. Fabrics used in the quilts were collected from migrant layup sites and trails in the desert. Each quilt lists the names of the deceased from a specific fiscal year; desconocido (unknown) is used for those migrants whose remains have not been identified.
