Faith Ringgold Quilt project.

I created a project based off of Faith Ringold's quilts. If you are not familiar with Ringold's amazing quilt work, here is a power point I put together to teach my students.

I created this power point to introduce personal functional art to my students.

I gave them instructions and they created a paper quilt as a class.

I cut 4.5 x 4.5 inch squares and the student put a personal touch to each one.

Then they put their cards together with yarn; punching two holes on each side.

This was a fun project. My only issue was keeping my students from stealing each other's cards.
