Soundboard Quilts

Monday, April 3rd, 2006

I finished my two week soundboard quilt residency. The students were fifth graders and the theme was Colonial America. It was very difficult working with the soundboard fabric. There was no time to sew it, and it was hard to iron so fusible web didn’t work well. Elmer’s didn’t stick to it. We finally used hot glue (the safer lower temperature kind) and that worked OK. Each quilt is 45 inches tall. After spring break we will get them up on the walls.

Great school; very accomodating teachers and well behaved kids!
