Vintage Sheet Quilt for My Student Teacher






I finally finished my first vintage sheet quilt.  I'm going to give to my student teacher.  She's been awesome. I think it was an eye opening experience.  Public school high schoolers are , shall we say, interesting.  She's seen the good and the bad. I hope she still wants to be a teacher- at least she got a good picture of he highs and lows of dealing with teenagers, parents, administrators.  She's almost done and just observing other teachers now.  I hope she likes the quilt and will keep it for years and look back fondly one her student teaching experience.  17 years ago I got a blank of Virginia Tech from my cooperating teacher and I still have it on my couch.

Vintage Sheet Quilt #1

My first vintage sheet quilt.  I used a tutorial from the Missouri Star Quilt Company to do it.  It's so much fun and so easy.  I haven't decided yet how much bigger I'm going to make it. I had one pattern sheet and there were a couple of paint splatters in a few spaces and I wondered if I'd have enough- them luck be in on Presidents Day, Savers was having 50% off on all clothes and household items and I found  another exact sheet I needed.  I was so excited.  Savers is the bomb!
