The Keepsake Quilt

Keepsake Quilt










The Picture Collage












I finally finished the keepsake quilt . I made it for Michelle.
She is the 2nd grade teacher I work with. This is her 1st year
 with her own classroom. She is a wonderful person to work with
 and I thought it would be great to make something for her to
remember this Special year by. The kids had to keep the secret for weeks.
Amazing to get 28 2nd graders to do that. We were quite sneeky as pieces
 of the quilt  came to  class to be signed and finished, while she was there .

 When I gave her the quilt she cried, she was so surprised. ( Happy Tears)
 The center is a collage of pics of  all the events and  fun thing the class has done all year.
 In the center of the pics it says "Mrs. White's 2nd Grade Class  2012"
Then it is surrounded by 28 little signed handprints from  all the kids.
The border fabric is crayons.
 I think this was one of the most  fun quilts I have ever made.
 I am so happy she loved it.  Happy memories!!!

My latest Saturday Club blocks  done.                                                                              

 



 Splurged on a few new books.
 Had them on my wish list and when they went on sale.
Well I just couldn't resist. I have been wanting to try this quick quilting  for a while.
And I have already  read the first 4 Marie Bostwick 's Cobble Court series.
This is book 5.

1st Block Done



















Here is the first 16" block of the strippy quilt done .
 I love all the purple fabrics.  They look even more Springy
now that I put it together...Only 11 more blocks to go.
With all the chain piecing and  using the quick method
to make the perfect star points without marking each one,
 it shouldn't take long.
