Quick I need a present for a niece!

Suddenely realised I didn't have a present for Hannah
Who is 1 tomorrow.
Then realised that today I have nothing to do.
Why?
I got signed off from my course on Wednesday.
Therefore I am a qualified teacher.
I survived 10 months of gruelling hard work, 8 essays, 2 presentations, 3 placements, countless lectures and seminars and raised (or rather dragged up) four kids and three cats single handley.
I'm rather proud of myself.

So back to having nothing to do.
I can do something,
I can make a quilt in day.




I love this quilt.
I didnt want to give away.
Perfect for being dragged around.
Not a drop of pink in sight (mama of Hannah approves)
I really liked the decision not to have boarders.
Plus not resorting to putting white in.
The only thing I didn't like was machining the binding.
When she is older I will hand sew it.

I have written a list of I want to accomplish this summer.
Its long!

  8. Congrats!! Do you have a teaching job yet? I bet your children are really happy that you don't have homework (at least for a while).
    Love the bright quilt and the black and white really makes all the colors pop.
    Great job.
    How long is that list?
