Finito! Teacher's appreciation gift





O.'s preschool teacher is really special. She's engaging and attentive to each child's unique needs and personality. O. really likes her. Even though I'm not a great quilter and wasn't sure I should foist my amateurish efforts off on someone I decided some months ago to make her a quilt as an end of the year gift. I chose a simple pattern and purchased a lovely batik jellyroll from JA's. I don't know if she likes blue, but hopefully she liked the quilt (she seemed to!). It's full of imperfections, but I tried very hard and I think in the end it turned out pretty well. As a preschool teacher I think she'll be able to look past the flaws and appreciate the effort. O gifted it to her and I snapped a couple of pictures. I also made a cute heart shaped label, but forgot to get a picture of that.
