Tahoe Expedition Academy Quilting Project
In the spring of 2023, Tahoe Expedition Academy (TEA) middle schoolers came to the Roundhouse to design and sew a group quilt for their school fundraiser auction. Each of the 15 students, from grades 6th - 8th, designed their own quilt square and spent the week sewing together. Our makerspace volunteer and expert quilter, Georgia Smith, assisted the students in piecing together the quilt and using her long-arm machine to stitch on the top quilted design.
Tahoe Expedition Academy is a coeducational Pre-K-12 school located on 42-acres in Truckee, California, minutes away from beautiful Lake Tahoe. TEA is fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, and was created ten years ago to change the face of education and harness the infinite power of the next generation of problem solvers.
