Does this resurrect memories or what! I took Home -Ec when I was in elementary school through grade 11. I lived in Montreal, Ca. so end of high-school was grade 11. I cannot remember what the curriculum was each year.
We learned to knit, crochet, sew, make garments, child's dress and slip, cooking, home making and how to make hospital corners on a bed.
We learned to knit mittens, gloves and socks. After I received my grade for my socks I wore them one day and low and behold I had a hole on the heel from my shoes. Decided never to make a pair of socks again. So, I have not made a pair to date.
I knitted my pair of gloves and a friend asked me to borrow mine so she can get a grade. No way, I told her.
As far as quilting is concerned I learned and am still learning through friends and classes. I joined a quilting guild in the Tx Valley. Happy to be on this site and learning from all of you.
