“My Grandmother had a quilt'
that my great grandmother made;
I saw it and wanted to make
something just like it.” Kristi
Gustafsson said when she was
asked what inspired her to start
quilting.
i Kristi is a 19 year old student
attending CCC. She has been
quilting for four years now. She
made her first quilt while she was
in high school in a home
economics class. Since then she
has made six other quilts.
Kristi said that a high point in
quilt making was when she won a
third place ribbon in the
Clackamas County Fair.
,-i Along with quilting Kristi sews
and makes assorted kinds of
crafts. “I like to make my own
clothes when ever I can,” Kristi
said.

received a B.A. in English from
PSU and is certified to teach. She
found out that teaching was not
her niche, but tutoring was.
Presently she has been fully oc
cupied with CCC’s theatre for the
•
past five years.
“I’ve been writing scripts, ac
ting, and directing for 40 years,”
Bragg states of her drama ex
perience. Lately she has been
dramatically inundated. Bragg,
however, doesn’t mind a bit.
“For the past couple months,
I’ve been here 14 hours a day. My

Clackamas this spring. “We offer
ground school training that
enables students to pass the FAR
(Federal Aviation Rules) written
exam,” explained instructor
Shirley Berquist.
The cost of the class is $134,
which includes class supplies. The
classes will be held from 6:30 to
9:30 from Tuesday to Thursday.
The class outline lists the class
topics as covering aerodynamics,

an Aurora based flight school,
said that “It would be nice if
students came here. We’re not
allowed to promote this company
exclusively, but that doesn’t
mean we have to demote it
either.”
Berquist’s own experience with
. flying began with flight lessons as
a birthday present from her hus
band. “I. fell in love,” she said
when asked why she started fly

stitches and puts the quilt in a
hoop or frame. She sews the quilt
10-12 stitches per inch. Then she
sews up the edges. She sews the
quilt by machine and by hand.
It usually takes Kristi about six
months to make a quilt.
Kristi said that after spending
all of that time on making the
quilt she usually cannot separate
with it by giving it to people as a
gift. If she does give them away
she gives them to people who she
visits often.
Kristi plans to enter a quilt in
the Clackamas County fair again
this summer. She would also like
to re-make that quilt that her
great grandmother made which
first inspired her to begin this
hobby.
“When I have a house of my
own, I want every bed in the
house to have quilts for
blankets,” Kristi said when talk

making.

The class can be taken just for

most students, said Berquist, is to
obtain a private pilot’s license. A
private pilot license requires tests
to be passed in both ground and
