We are hosting a Founders' Day at our school on May 1, and I have been contacted to suggest some type of quilting activity - perhaps a collective sewing of pre-cut squares or whatever - that might engage the interest of children anywhere from preschool to 6th grade. At our Sunday School, I know children of all ages have been very enthusiastic about using yarn and a big needle to stitch together knitted and crocheted squares, but I won't have anything like that ready for May 1.
I found one project idea at the Linus Project (
http://www.projectlinus.org/patterns/pdf/NoSewFB.pdf ) but I am sure there are other ideas out there. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you for your time.
I should clarify, I am really hoping for something that is mostly do-able that day!
