A Day at the Art Table: Beginners Quilts 

The Monday/Wednesday/Friday and 

the Tuesday/Thursday Beginners 

classes have made class quilts for the 

very first time in LRS history. They 

expressed their creativity with brightly 

colored brush strokes. 

Quilters: 

Beginners students, Monica Sin, 

Annette Thompson and Susan Wahl 

Sunset at the Seashore: Nursery West Quilt 

The Nursery West students hand-painted adorable sea 

creatures that decorate a colorful seashore, a subject they 

explored at the beginning of the school year. This quilt will 

provide hours of entertainment—all creatures are held by Velcro 

and can be removed and replaced throughout the seashore. 

Quilters: Nursery West students, Monica Sin, Annette Thompson 

and Corie Lepanto. 

Look at Me!: Nursery East Quilt 

Nursery East students literally walk you around their gallery 

of colorful self-portraits in this one-of-a-kind quilt. 

Quilters: Nursery East students, 

Judy Heiland and Tatiana Mori.

Jumping for Joy!: K-1 Quilt 

As part of their year-long study theme, Art and Artists, the K-1 children 

worked together to replicate a Matisse painting from 1950 which 

depicts a festive dancer leaping against a colorful background of a 

collage-style painting. The Kindergarten class painted the 12 

background squares in collage style: then the First Graders used felt 

and cloth to design the figure of a dancer in the foreground. 

Quilters: K-1 students, Gail Worthington and 

Donna Volpitta 

Medieval Tapestry: 2-3 Quilt 

Dulcimer Orchestra: 4-5 Quilt 

The All-School Performance is over, but the 

memory of the 4-5 Dulcimer Orchestra will 

live on with this quilt. Each student has a 

personalized dulcimer with embellishments of 

foil arranged on the LRS stage…this quilt is a 

must. 

Quilters: 4-5 students, Susan Bralower and 

Terran Whittingham. 

Work in Progress 

Inspired by the 2-3 class trip to the Cloisters, this 

gorgeous quilt in rich reds, golds and greens is a 

menagerie of mythical beasts and animals based 

on original medieval pictures. Each student in 2- 

3 painstakingly hand-carved his/her animal or 

beast and then printed it onto a linen quilt 

square. You will never tire looking at this regal 

tapestry hanging in your castle! 

Quilters: 2-3 students, Chyi Landless, Elena Sirota, 

Terran Whittingham, and Leslie Williamson.
