4-Her’s celebrate Canada’s 150thKayla Emmerton In honour of Canada's 150th birthday, members of Peel 4-H had an amazing time taking part of a craft club that has been around longer than Canada — Embroidery. Members were able to “learn to do by doing” by learning a variety of different stitches, like the lazy daisy and the blanket stitch — a common stitch found on the edges of many fleece blankets. For their final project, members decided to embroider the provincial flowers of Canada and quilt them together to create a wall hanging. The squares turned out very beautiful, and the quilt will be auctioned off at 4-H awards night in the fall. Through this fun and stimulating club, 4-Her's were able to enjoy socializing and working together just like they did 100 years ago. For more pictures and information about Peel 4-H visit www.4-hontario.ca/4h-in-my-area/peel.aspx  These young Peel 4-H members were holding up some of the patches they embroidered, which will come together in a quilt created in honour of Canada's 150th anniversary. |
