An Object to be Treasured

Create a facility-wide quilt that can be displayed and treasured by all. This can be done by forming a traditional quilting bee, or for an easier version, make one out of felt. What you will need:

  • 36 inch by 36 inch Felt Sheet
  • 16 - 8'' x 8'' Felt squares
  • Glitter glue pens
  • Gems and other embellishments
  • Felt fabric adhesive or tacky glue

Instructions:

Give each resident an 8" x 8" felt square. Have the resident decorate their felt squares with the glitter pens and embellishments. After the felt squares are complete, help the resident glue their felt pieces onto the larger 36" x 36" felt sheet to make the quilt. Display this on the wall or ask to have it displayed it in your community at a local library or town hall.
