Class quilt

Quilted, bound and washed. Signed, sealed and delivered. It's DONE! Objective: Create an art quilt for Kindergarten teacher to celebrate her marriage and name change. I wanted to the kids' artwork to be the focus, so I choose black and white fabric to frame each square.

I thought about doing something on the PC, but I wanted the relaxed, fun look that went with the kids' handwriting…

57 x 68 Isn't this just the cutest quilt? All these faces were hand drawn by a class of kids in Seattle. This quilt is for an auction to raise money for their school.
