Clinton Elementary School Residency ~ Mosaic Glass Quilts
In December, I spent one week with K-5th graders at Clinton
Elementary School in Lincoln, Nebraska. In addition to creating fused
glass snowflakes to take home and enjoy, we collaborated on a glass
quilt that will hang in the school for all the students, staff and
visitors to enjoy for years to come. I'm thrilled that the International
Quilt Study Center is going to host the opening reception in May for
First Friday. I can't wait for the kiddos to share their experience!
We spent the week with color theory and worksheets figuring out the quilt blocks we wanted to use, what shapes made up the blocks we chose, and playing with different color combinations to find our favorites.
