V; Hi ij UHS junior Shailey Christensen has completed over 10 quilts in the sewing program which she began taking her freshman year. She hopes to keep this one for herself. Shandi Batty measures the pillow sham that she her junior year in the UHS quilting class. is finishing during Students learn to love sewing by making quilts Renee Steele takes quilting very seriously, and she expects her students to do the same. She accepts four more students each semester than she has sewing machines, and then begins the course by telling them that those who aren't serious about learning to sew had better check themselves out of the class. The method must woik, as many of the sewingquilting students have taken every class that she has offered since they entered Uintah High School. Steele teaches machine quilting, pattern designing, fabrics and all of the other techniques of making successful quilts in a program that puts out about 300 quilts a year. She sees many students able to produce several quilts per trimester. Beginners concentrate on designing and completing one per class. The teacher who encourages production in her classes says, I teach them first a love of sewing, and then the skills. The rest just takes care of itself." She finds the students far more demanding of themselves than she could be. Chain stores and cheap clothing makes sewing not economical any more, Steele observes. We could- - n't get kids to sew clothes. So I went out on a limb and asked if I could teach quilting. Kids have a passion for sewing after making quilts. Math skills are important to students making their own patterns. The first quilt must have all squares and borders the same size. All levels of student skills are combined in each class, and many see their quilts as an art form and a legacy. Each year at ParentTeacher Conferences the UHS quilting classes display over 40 quilts from the balcony in various stages of completion. Finished quilts are frequently on display in the front office for school visitors to enjoy and at various fabric merchants who also help students with fabric, supplies and gift certificates. Asked if she will be teaching quilting in any summer school programs, Steele quickly points out that shes a farmer in the summer, and that her time will be spent driving a tractor, irrigating, andrecov-erin- g from the broken wrist that she have learned the love and skills of sewing, new quilts will be finished by the end of the summer. acquired while riding her horse a couple of weeks ago.
