It's been a great school year
and I couldn't have asked for better teachers for my kids. I'm so
thankful for the teaching and love they received every day. Their teachers really gave 110%! Today is the last day of school and as always, I waited till the last second to put something together to show my appreciation. So last night I ran down to our local smoothie shop and got them all gift certificates (2 teachers, 1 teacher's aide and 1 bus driver).
With a little graph paper and Washi tape, I attached a little note that says,
"You've been a real 'SMOOTH' teacher this year!"
and
"Thanks for giving us a 'SMOOTH' ride to school this year!"
(Both of my kids commented on how cool the tape was!
What can I say, Washi makes everything cute :)
There isn't a gift that could sufficiently thank their teachers but I hope they'll enjoy a yummy treat on us :)
I also finished this flimsy last night.
I've been working on lots of different projects lately (that I can't share pictures of quite yet :) so it was fun to squeeze in some time to make something for the quilt shop I work at.
This was a fun little project to try out the new Jaybird Quilts Hex N More ruler. I used Summer House fabrics from Henry Glass + a few random pieces. I really loved working with the Hex N More ruler! It was easy to cut with and the pieces went together quickly and easily. It was a little pricey (about $24) but I splurged because I figured I'd use it time and time again. After finishing this flimsy last night I started itching to make another quilt with my son's collection of fat quarters! So I guess that's a good sign!
Well, I'm off to the school now to catch a little of
the end of year festivities!
Happy quilting!
