One of our preschool teachers just retired. The director asked if I would make her a quilt. I ironed white fabric to freezer paper and cut it in 6-1/2" squares and had the children (and a couple assistants) draw a picture of themselves to remember them by. Remember, these children are 3 & 4, so the 'self portraits' are unusual (and cute). Had only a week to make this after I got the squares back so I just added sashing and cornerstones and used Charismah's two color binding that needs no hand sewing to finish it. It was fun to do and the retiring teacher loved it.
