This is one of three quilts for the LEARN Charter School, in conjunction with the North Lawndale African American Heritage Quilting Project. Every year, Lucille Morris Tomlinson has her class to do presentations for African American History Month. When she heard about the quilting project, she took the process a step further. In addition to their presentations (which were carefully prepared through typed papers, poster boards and oral presentations), the children were asked to translate their presentations on African American heroes to a 6″ square. The 6″ squares are being sewn onto 8″ squares and patched together. We were blessed with a fabric donation from a young lady who read about the project upon the death of her boyfriends’s mother. Ideally, the children researched heroes from North Lawndale, as well as <nobr style="font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><a class="FAtxtL" href="http://www.valeriefleonard.com/2014/06/14/a-chip-off-the-old-quilting-block/#" id="FALINK_4_0_3" style="background-color: transparent !important; border-bottom-color: rgb(28, 125, 255) !important; border-bottom-style: solid !important; border-width: 0px !important; color: rgb(28, 125, 255) !important; display: inline !important; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding-bottom: 1px !important; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">local</a></nobr>traditions. Many of the children focused on other African American heroes from around the country. The children were also given an overview of the meaning of a number of Adinkra symbols. They were asked to<nobr style="font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;"><a class="FAtxtL" href="http://www.valeriefleonard.com/2014/06/14/a-chip-off-the-old-quilting-block/#" id="FALINK_2_0_1" style="background-color: transparent !important; border-bottom-color: rgb(28, 125, 255) !important; border-bottom-style: solid !important; border-width: 0px !important; color: rgb(28, 125, 255) !important; display: inline !important; font-family: inherit; font-style: inherit; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding-bottom: 1px !important; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; padding-top: 0px; vertical-align: baseline;">select</a></nobr> a symbol that helps tell the story of their hero.

Outlined below is an excerpt from an article that appears on the City Year blog.
Last Thursday, the United Way of Metropolitan Chicago Impact Fund, a McCormick Foundation Fund Team serving at the Bethune School of Excellence held their annual Middle School Service Day. Each year, the Middle School Service Day is designed to teach middle school students about the value of service to their community and then give them an opportunity to put that knowledge into action. At the Bethune School of Excellence, that meant an afternoon of students connecting with both service, and their African American North Lawndale heritage through the craft of quilting!

Lucille invited Valerie F. Leonard to share information with the children regarding the North Lawndale African American Heritage Quilting Project. In turn, they shared their Black History Month presentations, which included reports and poster boards. After the children shared their presentations they brainstormed ways their presentations could be translated into a quilt for the quilting project. We will meet next week to begin to prepare quilt blocks for the quilt.

On Friday, March 30, 2012, we will be at the Pathfinders Prevention Education Fund fundraiser, raffling chances to design a quilt to be auctioned off at Pathfinders' next event.
On Thursday, April 26, we will be working with City Year to develop a quilt during their Middle School Service Day, in which 7th and graders will work with primary grade students to learn how to serve others. One of the exercises will include the development of a community quilt.
On Saturday, May 5, 2012, we will be at the Collins Academy High School Community Resource Fair. We will be one of several vendors and community based organizations sharing educational resources to middle and high school children. We will work with Collins High School and City Year to develop a community quilt.North Lawndale African American Heritage Quilting Projecthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15454453061922572419noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4665574310797927788.post-83319014417892795342012-03-29T17:10:00.001-07:002012-03-29T17:11:43.932-07:00Rev. JM StoneDan Perkins, Gary Keller and Valerie F. Leonard met with Bishop Fitzpatrick and his mother, Clara Fitzpatrick, Ed.D, on March 10, 2012. Bishop Fitzpatrick is the pastor of Stone Temple Baptist Church and the Grandson of the founder, Rev. JM Stone. Stone Temple is on historic Douglas Boulevard, down the street from 3411 West Douglas Boulevard, the former site of Friendship Baptist Church. Both Stone Temple and 3411 West Douglas are former synagogues.
We thank Bishop Fitzpatrick and Mrs. Clara Fitzpatrick for sharing this article and photographs. I thank Gary Keller for sharing his photos of the article. This article was written by Mary Denson, the Publisher of Windy City Word.<br />

Shelvin Hall's ObituaryWe were browsing the internet and stumbled upon Rev. Shelvin Hall's Obituary. Rev. Hall was the pastor of Friendship Baptist Church for 51 years. Friendship Baptist Church was located in North Lawndale in the 1960's, as was one of three churches in Chicago that welcomed Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. This photograph is included for education purposes only, and all rights are reserved by the Chicago Sun-Times.

We will be working with parents and students to develop a one of a kind creation around the theme "Warriors: Past, Present, and Future" to celebrate our past accomplishments and to inspire the next generation. I am totally excited about the possibilities.North Lawndale African American Heritage Quilting Projecthttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15454453061922572419noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4665574310797927788.post-83145155768640611192012-02-28T19:16:00.000-08:002012-03-29T16:39:42.163-07:00Thanks for Coming Out to the Drive-Thru Quilting Event<span style="background-color: white; color: #2a2a2a; font-family: "Times New Roman"; font-size: small;"></span><br />
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 20px;">
<span style="background-color: white; color: #2a2a2a; font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">We thank each of you who was able to attend Saturday's Drive-Thru Quilting event. We thank Mssrs. Ronald Lofton Sr. and Ronald Lofton Jr. for their generous support of the event, including discounted meals for participants. We thank City Year volunteers who helped with the logistics and artistic vision, and got their hands dirty designing quilt blocks. We thank Reneau Diallo, Karen Bailey and Zoe Ann Nance for their leadership.<br /><br />We displayed our very first quilt, and the quilt in progress prepared by Carey Tercentenary AME Church. We had a great turnout, and participants generated enough quilt blocks to pull together two quilts. We were so impressed by the work of a Viet Nam Vet who participated that we will pull his blocks together to make a separate quilt. We will display quilts from the project at McDonald's and take the show on the road when we get a critical mass of quilts. In the meantime, we will be working with schools and other organizations in the community to assist them in making quilts. If your organization is interested in participating, please contact me at valeriefleonard@msn.com. We are looking forward to strengthening the social fabric of our community.<br /><br />We thank Paul Norrington and Seth Barnhart, for sharing their photos. God willing, I will be able to provide you with more pics later this week.</span><br />

They will also be reaching out to other AUSL schools in Lawndale, including Manley, Johnson and Chalmers to see if they are interested as well. There is potential for at least 17 young adults from City Year to participate, as well as students and staff from the schools. We will need to meet ahead of the Drive-Thru Quilting day to plan logistics and get a head start on productivity for the day. If you are interested in participating in that meeting let me know.</div>

If you don't have time to help us plan, we welcome your participation. Feel free to stop by McDonald's on February 25, 2012, any time between 9:00 am and 3:00 pm. You can bring your own fabric, or use ours. We will help you develop a quilt block using traditional patterns, pictures, poems, your favorite Bible verse, description of block club traditions, etc. The goal of the project is to use quilting to document the<br />African American experience in North Lawndale. No experience needed.</div>

<br />
Thanks to everyone for the roles you played in completing our first quilt. We appreciate the donations of fabric and material donations and use of sewing machines from Karen Bailey and Shirley Wilson, Lisa Wilcoxen, Reneau Diallo and Jacqueline Gipson. We thank Lisa Wilcoxen, Karen Bailey, Shirley Wilson, Jacqueline Gipson and Chris Malawy for providing leadership and/or technical assistance in pulling the quilt pieces together. We appreciate the donation of fabric blocks by the quilters, Historic K-Town and Kameryn Leonard. We thank BBF for in-kind donations of space, staff time, copies and use of computers.<br />
<br />
We thank Dianna Long, of the Urban Art Retreat, for conducting quilting workshops for children and adults at her program site. She has 4 quilts underway, and has invited us to drop in and see the work in progress. Dianna may be contacted at<br />

<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Status </span></b><br />
<br />
We are almost done with our first quilt. Constructing this quilt is giving us an opportunity to learn skills for developing what will be our cloth museum. We have pieced together the 9-patch blocks that the class made for practice a few weeks ago, and have pieced together the top and backing, inserted the batting, and have started knotting the 3 layers. Valerie Leonard will finish knotting the 3 outstanding 9-patches tonight, so that we can focus our efforts on binding tomorrow. When we're done binding, Karen will take the quilt and work with her apprentices later this week to crochet a decorative border.<br />
<br />
Jacqueline Gipson has started a quilt honoring her father and other significant people and events in North Lawndale.
Reneau Diallo has indicated that it is difficult for her to make it over to the West Side in the evenings, and has offered to work with a group of quilters who grew up in North Lawndale to produce a quilt.<br />
<br />
Ashunti Community Services, Inc. has offered to assist in the development of a quilt and to host the celebration on their premises. We will explore this opportunity further.
We will be scheduling one-on-one meetings with individuals and organizations that have expressed an interest in participating, but find Tuesday evenings inconvenient.<br />
<br />
<b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: x-large;">Next Steps</span></b><br />
<br />
We should be done with the quilt tomorrow. Next week's meeting will be spent planning activities for the remainder of the project. We will select themes for individual rooms in our cloth museum. Each room will have its own theme, ie, journalists, schools, athletes, etc. We are asking each person to be responsible for completing at least one wall size quilt, of at least 24" x 24" by January 15th. Some people will be able to get their quilts done sooner. Those of us who have quilting experience will be on hand to help those of us who don't.<br />
<br />
We hope to have a date set for our drive through quilting by the end of the week. We are looking at January 7th and/OR January 14th. Reneau Diallo has indicated that she would be willing to take the lead on this, sharing her experiences from the Quilt Pavilion at the African Festival of the Arts.

The North Lawndale African American Heritage Quilting Project held its 6th session on October 25, 2011 at Better Boys Foundation. Individual group members pulled together 12.5" blocks which will be stitched together to create the top of the first quilt next week. We thank Shirley Wilson and Karen Bailey for facilitating tonight's session and assembling the pieces for the quilt blocks.
Here's the Flickr stream from tonight.

I did a presentation on message quilting, while Reneau Diallo debunked the myth of the Underground Railroad quilts, shared some of her own quilts and provided history of some common African textiles. We will start our first quilt on Tuesday, October 25, 2011.

<div style="text-align: left;">
Thanks everyone who came out Tuesday night to participate in the workshop. My mom finished up the workshop on embroidery, and Lisa Wilcoxen facilitated a workshop on basic quilting. I didn't do a sign in sheet, but I'm guessing that we had between 20 and 25 people come through over the course of the evening.
We thank Lisa Wilcoxen, Essie Leonard, Chris Malawy and Reneau Diallo for their workshops and for supporting the facilitators. The teamwork is phenomenal!
Here are pics from last night's session. The quality of the pics is not good, but you get a sense for what happened.</div>

Remember Jacquelyn Gipson, one of our lead quilters, in our prayers. Her dad is very ill, and she finds herself visiting him in the hospital twice a day. In spite of this, she is always looking for ways to help us out.
