Here is the first of the two quilts I assembled:
This one is themed "The Hands of Friendship". It measures about 55x42 or a lap quilt size.
It turned out cute! I decided against a complicated setting because I didn't want to distract from the children's darling work. Well.. that and I wanted to keep it simple for my own reasons. I get bogged down with design decisions and I didn't give myself enough time with these to do any bogging down..
I think what happens is that all the classroom quilts will be bid on in a silent auction at our annual Family Dance on Saturday. They'd been doing teacher themed gift baskets and decided on this project to change it up a little. I hope this project generates a lot of money!

So adorable!!
It would be cool if the winning bidder gave it to the kids' teacher =).
Your talents never cease to amaze me!
BTW, how's this for a brain - gone moment: I had to retype about 8 different spellings of "cease" before SpellCheck confirmed I had a good spelling. LOL!
Those are lovely - congrats on making the deadline as well (-ish)!
This is adorable! What did the kid's use to "color" their blocks?
I wish I knew what they used to color the blocks. I wasn't a part of that stage of the activity. one group seemed to use crayons and the other one had sharper lines with colored pencils. I don't know if these are permanent on fabric.
Do you have instructions on how to do this? I would love to do this with my classes for our school auction next year!
