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.

Work on it Wednesday

Why do I do this? I know I need to do these things, but still I procrastinate. I need to finish the end of the year teacher's gifts. I've known when end of the year was...well,since the beginning of the year. Yet, somehow it's snuck up on me and I have just a matter of days to crank out those gifts. Panic time! Ugh, when will I ever learn? So, I guess that's what I need to do. I need to put the foot to the pedal and get those gifts completed. I swear, this is the last time, I will not wait to the last minute again. Oh and of course I still need to finish the quilt for my niece.
