This is what I decided to do with my jellyroll...
My co-teacher is getting married May 1st. I had the kids in our class draw and color pictures related to her wedding and gave them ideas like: wedding dress, cake, bouquet, the couple, etc. These are their ideas of what her wedding will look like (knowing of course that purple is her favorite color). I scanned their pictures and printed them on the printable fabric (washable of course). I'm very excited! Now I can't wait for the day of the shower as I plan to have the kids present it to her earlier that day.

I also scanned her invitation and found a photo of the couple on FB and included both of those.

Don't you love the blue and purple wedding dress!

What a cool idea. I bet they will love it and the kids will love that they could be part of it.

I love it-the colors are great. Don't you just love the innocence of kids? They draw what they feel. Your co-teacher is going to love it.

Kid art is my favorite! I'm thinking of taking some fabric to school and making a "Downey" quilt with the kids - turning it into a math lesson as we cut the pieces. hmmmmm....
