Materials & Techniques Used: muslin, water soluble marker, permanent marker, fabric paint.
What is your troop’s artwork about?
“The girls each did a drawing and voted on the one they liked best. They then decided how they wanted to put the winning design on the material. They choose to draw it on with marker and all of them painted together. They then decided to use their hands to make the grass and sign their name in their handprint. They chose to stick as close to the Girl Scout colors as possible.”

What is your group’s artwork about?
“The theme of our quilt square is to display how the wonders of peace on Earth and the development of science due to cooperation among the nations combine to make the world a better place. The colors, arrangement, and symbols on the square were each put into place with careful thought and planning. First are the GSUSA acronym and the troop number. We want to let the world know that we are the Girl Scouts of the United States of America, and we aren't afraid to show it. 

The American flag is prominently displayed in the upper right-hand corner to signify the pride we have for our country. The pride we feel for our state is represented by our state's initials that were painted in our state's official colors. The peace sign in the middle of the design was placed there to show its importance. It symbolizes the world peace that we are hoping and working towards. Next is the double helix, which is the approximate structural shape of DNA and represents every subcategory of science. The light bulb symbolizes the ideas that Girl Scouts have to uphold the Girl Scout Promise and Law. The multi-colored light beams represent the unique ways Girl Scouts share ideas with everyone they meet. Lastly, the vivid colors and patterns symbolize happiness. Our dream rocket quilt square was made by a team of friends with lots of love.”

Did your group enjoy this project? “Yes, the troop worked together diligently to make this in their vision.”
