Teacher's Gift Plus Quilt
My daughter's kindergarten teacher this year has been fantastic. We moved in a month after school started and Harper really struggled. Her teacher made her feel welcome and has been positive and encouraging. So I wanted to make sure to do something special for her.
I know that her favorite colors are royal blue, purple, and pink so I wanted to incorporate all of those colors. I had a couple prints from Aneela Hooey's Hello Petal which just happened to involve all of those colors, plus they seemed perfect for a kindergarten teacher.
Because I have had a lot on my plate lately I did a simple plus quilt with 5" squares. I think that because the squares are so big it makes the quilt look smaller than it is: it is 63" x 72". It is quilted with crosshatching since apparently that's all I do anymore, ha ha. But seriously it is my favorite.
The backing is a Shelburne Falls print that I had on hand and the binding is (I think) Mama Said Sew by Sweetwater.
All that it needs is for my daughter to help me make a label for the back. She still has 2 entire weeks of school left so we should have plenty of time (thought we will probably save it for the last minute).
