Quilting time
Two groups of youths from the Smith and Ray Warren communities in Greensboro were SAES guests on a quest in July. Dr. Geraldine Ray coordinates a special “Fabric and Thread Camp that brings youngsters to the SAES for weeklong introductions to textiles and fashion merchandising and design. This year the emphasis was on machine quilting and embroidery.
Funding for the Fabric and Thread Art Camp came from the Greensboro Arts Council, the United Institutional Baptist Church, the Greensboro Club of the National Association of Negro Business and Professional Women's Clubs, and the Department of Human Environment and Family Sciences at A&T.

Dr. Ray is there a possibility this will be repeated? There is so much joy in sewing. Unfortunately, not many of our youth are exposed.
