ART - Patchwork

Cool Slideshows

Patchwork fun!
Do you know what a quilt is? and... What does patchwork mean?
Well, to answer these questions I invited Julia Baigorri to our class. Julia is a teacher of english, a poet and she loves patchwork. She is really a wonderful woman!
She told the children the origins of patchwork. Its way from the Near East to Europe and then to America. The lifestyle of the pioneers who settled in the west and their lives in the new frontier. They reviwed and learn words from many topics. They spent a happy time with her. The idea now is to sew a patchwork heart to present on Mother´s Day. The heart design has been made by Mª Jesús a patchwork artist and teacher from Logroño.
Many thanks to you both!!
