Art Quilt Progress

While the cutting of fabric was underway with Forest Grove's six oldest classes, we have also been working on our 4 x 4 inch art squares.
Each season has four classes making art about it. The four classes range from Kindergarten to Grade 6 and/or 7 in each grouping.  This allows for each season's panel to share a spectrum of techniques and abilities.

Autumn 



Winter 



Spring



Summer



Art squares will be finished by the end of term in December.  Techniques have ranged from painting with stencils and stamps to free hand painting to embroidery. We are getting closer each day to our goal of 360 squares in each panel.
