A Quilt For Teacher

June 3, 2014 by Jodi 3 Comments

A Baby Quilt for A Teacher

Normally, I don’t do much for teacher gifts –  a little potted basil with a family recipe is my go-to. However, some teachers are just so amazing and loving that you want to do a little more, and when you have the perfect charm pack in your stash, and Amazing Teacher is expecting a baby, a baby quilt nearly makes itself.

Except that it didn’t make itself. Gianna made it. She gave this quilt top her very best efforts, and with the help of a quarter-inch piecing foot and an attentive mother, she did an impressive job for a six-year old. We were running short on time, so I finished and quilted the baby blanket for her.

I am proud of my daughter who’s big heart is always dreaming up big ideas for loving other people. I can learn a thing or two from her.

    That is lovely! It’s miles better than the first (and only) quilt I sewed.

Sew Fearless is about a reckless pursuit of the sewing craft. It is about not letting your fears talk you out of your dreams. It is a place to go for encouragement, information, and sewing camaraderie. It’s a place where “done” is better than “perfect”, and where saying “I didn’t try” is worse than “I failed”. Read More…
