Kindergarten Art

The students had such a wonderful time creating their "quilts" for our study of Gee's Bend quilters. They all created wonderful weavings and then painted a background quilt pattern to place their weaving square on top of. Each student chose where their weaving would be attached and the results are whimsical and beautiful. This was the first time I approached this project with these materials and techniques and I am so pleased with the results. All the work is hanging in the hallway and I hope you have the opportunity to view your child's work. We are going to begin work today on the Gala playing card project. Each student will create a collaged playing card to be joined together in a quilt inspired collage piece that will be available at the Gala for bids. I am sure the work will be beautiful!
