This is the sort of activity I was always involved in when my daughters were in elementary school. It's pretty standard for Catholic schools ( or private schools for that matter) to have an auction to raise money. Usually I was a room mother or helper to the room mother and involved in organizing the class project. Eight years of elementary school x's 4 daughters. Thirty two projects!
Now look what I am doing! This is for my oldest grandson's Pre K class at his Catholic school. The teachers and a few mothers worked hard to get all the children's hand prints on squares I had pre-cut. One block of 4 squares sewn together is all the hands making a heart. Then there is a block of 2 squares for the teacher's hand prints and a scripture they chose.
I spent the better part of the weekend putting the top together. Later this week I will add the backing and complete it. I think I will hand tie it rather than machine quilt.
Check back in on Wednesday's Yarn Along and you will see a completed secret knitting project! Well....it's only half of it. Notice I have cast on the other half in navy:)
Loved the headline as much as the art work! Yep, like riding a bicycle...for sure!
