Item Description
Bid on this once in a lifetime collaborative handwork piece over 7 months in the making by WSP Sixth and Eighth Grade.
The colors chosen shine bright, cheerful and lively, as does the 6th and 8th grade class.
Each block expresses the students personality through choice of colors, pattern and layout of the design. Only accurately sewn blocks can be incorporated into a quilt. Many blocks were done over and over, until they had the desired size, requiring great will and determination by the students.
Each student designed and pieced together by hand and machine sewing one or two 6x6 inch blocks, consisting of 10, 2x2 inch squares.
There are 8 rows of 10 6x6 inch blocks. The backing of the quilt is blue with a flowing design of algae leaves and groups of small red fish.
The quilting was done by The Granary in Sunnyvale.
The final touches were hand stitch and binded by Kerstin Pintus.
Item Special Note
Quilt measures 84"x64"
The quilt process started since since September.
Machine sewing is introduced in 8th grade class while they learn about the industrial revolutions in their main lesson block.
The first block of the 8th grade class was sewing and it was their first project on the sewing machine.
