Art: Quilting Kits

What is in our quilting kits?
  • 9 pre-cut fabric squares
  • large eye-hole hand needle
  • fabric holder for needle
  • 1 spool of thread (25 yards)
  • instructions
All materials were bought locally. The needles came in packs of 12 with a variety of sizes. The largest needles were given to the youngest boys and girls. For thread, I bought two "sewing traveling kits", each containing 12 spools of thread. This was the cheapest option. The patches were made from scratch fabric that I had lying around. The student's name was taped to a plastic zip-lock bag for keeping materials separate at home as well as in Catholic Schoolhouse.
All together for 24 students the cost came to $6!
