Posted by Becky Mallatt on 2/19/07 My name is Becky Mallatt and I am from Oregon. I am organzing a 50 state quilt block exchange and I have all but 10 of the states ready to go. Montana is one that I don't have yet. I know this is a long shot, but I came upon your this chatboard, so I thought maybe I could send you the info and maybe one of the K-2 teachers here would like to participate. It will be totally free for you to join us, because the grant pays for everything. Here is the info I have posted on several websites. If you would like to join or know someone else from MT who would, PLEASE reply ASAP. thanks so much and have a great day! I received a "Kids in Need" grant for a "50 State Quilt Square Exchange." Here's how the project will work: I will get one teacher from each of the 50 states to agree to make 50 identical PAPER quilt squares to represent their state. They should be 6" square, done TLC-style (cut/glued paper). For instance, we made a beaver on ours because Oregon is "The Beaver State." Washington could be a pine tree design it's "The Evergreen State" and Florida could be a big sun because it's "The Sunshine State." You will also need to have a written piece, also 6" square, to go with each square (simple, kid- friendly, short and simple, writing pieces). They can all be the same. I am planning to do an interactive piece with my whole class. My grant will pay for you to mail me your completed squares and writing. I will then redistribute your 50 squares into files for each state, so that after I have gotten everything, I will have a file for each state with all 50 states' quilt squares and writing pieces. I will then send that file back to you. THEN you can either make them into a 50-states quilt piece that you can display in your school, OR maybe make it into a book - this part is up to you. If you are interested, please email me ASAP to my school email, rmallattbend.k12.or.us, or home email, mallatts@msn.com, giving me the following info: Your name & State Grade School School address Email I will confirm with you and will then send you detailed instructions. Please respond ASAP as we need to get this project going as quickly as we can.
