Quilts are like Snowflakes

After only one week of instruction and practice the students in Quilting is Sew Easy are creating very intricate works of art.

In order to create their designs they had to plan or sketch it out on graph-like paper - paper with small squares - since the quilts are created by sewing together individual squares.  For more detailed designs students needed to draw the correct size image on thin tracing paper and label the sections by using a number-color code. A yin-yang symbol and an ace of spades are examples of some complicated designs.

The colors being used on their quilts are all unique as well. They were able to shop and choose their own fabric and colors. Not a single design is like another - sort of like those snowflakes that we may get later this week - each one is unique and will never be repeated!
