I would like comments /suggestions on the following. I would like to do a quilting activity with my low care residents (Some are not really low care).

I want the end result to be the residents own work, not the mine.

I contacted the local quilting club & asked them what I was wanted to do with our residents & they were only to happy to help. The ladies each donated colourful material that they per cut into hexagons & we joined them like a flower ( a centre & 6 around the centre. This took a few months & they picked it up & joined all the flowers to make a large quilt that we have hanging in our facility. The residents were very proud of being a part of making it.
