Teen For Teen Summer Project

For three consecutive weeks in July, five of our members and a volunteer 
from Project Linus participated in a teaching-cum-charity project, 
organized in conjunction with White Plains Youth Bureau's Club Excel. 
The goal of this outreach project, named Teens for Teens, was to impart 
the joys and art of quilt making to teenagers, as well as to inspire 
in them a sense of community and generosity. Our members taught sixteen 
middle school teens fabric stamping and painting techniques as well as 
basic sewing skills and quilting during a three-week program at the 
Ridgeway Elementary School in White Plains. 

The VSQ members who participated in the Teen For Teen Summer Project were:
front row: Rosalind Yong, Cecelia Leiseroff,
second row: Susan Wolman, Bernice Ward, plus Ellen Mallet, Project Linus Coordinator.
