'quilt'

We've finally come to the end of a very long term and are breaking up for a well-deserved Easter holiday. The children have created some fantastic artwork over the last few weeks that I'm frantically trying to display. This is a pic of some textile work done by our y3's. It's a combination of some printed cotton panels (for which the children made their own wooden printing blocks) and some tapestry work (inspired by a visit to our local Art gallery). I'm nailing (!) it all in place as staples just couldn't hack it.

jewellery and tapestries

In art club we've been making ceramic jewellery. The children created pendants, brooches and rings.
 

In y3 our tapestries are continuing apace. The children were tasked with creating a symmetrical design and have been busily stitching their patterns onto hessian backings. We hope to further embellish them with beads and buttons.
