Fabric Art Plans for 2/25/11

Tomorrow for fabric art, we will be making quilts! Some of the ideas we will be considering are the purpose of a quilt, design of a quilt and storytelling through quilts. I am going to bring in an example for all of you to see and experience! Quilting is a great way to express yourself and create something useful. We will begin to work on quilts by making individual small squares of any design we desire! I was thinking four squares would be a good number for us to aim for, but any individual can make as many squares as they would like. When we are finished designing our squares, we will sew them together to form the beginning of our quilt.
