In April, Kathy & Kristin went to Highland Park Elementary and spent time in 4 classes. The students colored blocks that will be used to make coloring book quilts. We will take the quilts back to the school for the kids to see a finished project next month before donating them to a child. It's a fun way to include children in making blankets. Pictures are traced on muslin fabric & ironed on a piece of freezer paper. The children use fabric markers to color & the blocks are heat set before being sewn into a quilt. It was a fun day & we appreciate Mr. Lingen organizing everyone & his class, Mrs. Lemon, Mrs. Leaver & Mrs. Meacham for participating. The quilts are going to be great!
