Line Pattern Crazy Quilt

Line pattern crazy quilt- My Exemplar

Elementary students have begun the year studying line patterns and have created a Crazy Quilt in the style of Gustav Klimt.  They first drew the face they wanted (either a person or an animal) on a separate piece of paper.  They cut this out and glued this onto the larger piece of paper they would be working with. I like the separate piece of paper because this gives them an opportunity to make several faces/ heads until they get the one they want.  The paper is divided into sections with thick lines by using a sharpie.  The line patterns are then added into each space.  They could repeat a pattern or color, just not next to each other.  The students did a fabulous job on these and they were really vibrant with the the colored marker.
