4)soap operas had replaced quilting bees in their homes

1) Made a special effort to do a certain task.
2) A shotgun house means a long narrow house, usually in an old slum. All the rooms are in a line from front door to back, so... a shotgun blast would go straight through. Falling on one end and propped up on thr other just means it's dilapidated, falling down.
3) "sweat and blood" means somebody's hard work, that they put body and soul into it.
4) People used to sit and talk with each other as they made quilts together. Neighbors would gather in a different home each week, interact, build a sense of community. Now people sit and stare at a TV, are isolated. And if they talk, it's about the show, not their own comminity.
