The school principal where I teach is retiring this year. I wrote on an earlier post about making her a quilt for a gift from the faculty. Thanks to all of you I got great advice - even what fabric I should use (Thanks - LovinMySoldier!) Here's the earlier post: http://www.quiltingboard.com/t-117877-1.htm
A quilting friend who is also a co-worker ended up sewing most of it, but I helped! :) I think it came out great and can't wait to reveal it at the retirement party we're hosting next week.
Fabric: fat quarter bundle from Clotilde
Pattern: Turning 12
Border is same as backing - from local quilt shop
Quilting - overall meander pattern done by friend who has only quilted for herself until now.
Label - our school mascot is Ricky Ricebird. (Only in Texas?) We work at Northside Elementary.

Love this!!! Beautiful!

Love the colors.

Beautiful quilt. Love the red.

It needed to be red and white because those are our school colors, but I didn't really want a rah-rah quilt. That's where this board came in to send me in the right direction.

Very nice!! How nice of you to do that!

Gorgeous, I love red and white quilts!!! Best wishes to your colleague.

This is absolutely luscious. I hope you get a picture of her receiving it. I am sure she will be moved by such a great gift.

Great job!

Lovely quilt. You both did a wonderful job.
