The plan is for six new quilts sewn by students to hang in Lowell Elementary School by the end of the school year.
The second and third graders are nearly finished with the first installment of four quilts that depict the seasons and will hang side-by-side.
“I’ve been surprised and amazed by how much the kids have gotten into it and how much they’ve enjoyed it,” said Zoe Rickenbach, a Lowell parent and quilt artist who has been instrumental in the project. “I just didn’t expect it to be so wonderful.”
