:You mean that robots don't make that noise???? Tell the kids that you forgot to oil them before you sewed them on. My big question is WHY are you hand appliquing robots on a quilt for children? You must be a good soul!!!!!!!!!!
Oh, I am so glad I only drink caffeine free coke.

I think this is God sending us little messages to open our eyes to the fact that we are only human, we make mistakes and those of us that admit our mistakes are the ones who learn from them and become better at everything we do. Congratulations you a definately a member of the human race and a wonderful person to do this for your daughter's class.
Love to see the pictures before you gift it.

So you could slit the back, pull the paper out, it would likely be just fine. I can't remember if she whip stitched it closed, I likely would,
