Welcome to our WebQuest on quilting!  We created A Stitch in Time as a project for a course on integrating technology across the curriculum. This is an interactive lesson that incorporates history, literature and art.  A great deal of this lesson involves research that will be conducted through the Internet.  Students will be directed to sites that contain information on quilting and the cultures of African, Amish, and Native American people.  For each site, students are given questions and points that they should focus on.

Students will be instructed to work in groups of three.  These groups should be split up according to the individual teacher's decision.  Each group member will take on a specific role which explains which culture they will research.  Over the course of this project, students will conduct individual research, come back to the group with a summary, create a group patch using the cultural information and designs found, and finally, present their patch to the class with a description/explanation.
