    Okay so I didn't get teary eyed until I was loading these onto here. I am going to miss my kids. I did pass out a few of my business cards to some of the kids who wanted them and told them to let their parents see them and know that if they approved it was a way for them to keep in touch with me.

    When I make this quilt I will put the child's picture next to their block. Because in sewing these blocks together into a quilt some of their names will disappear because they put them so close to the edge of the fabric.

    So this is what I will be working on all week next week.

    OT . . . I just hate it when we lose beloved and inspirational teachers! Why can't schools be well-funded? Politics! :evil: [Thanks for listening!]

    Henry ~ Again, those are a lovely tribute! Looking forward to seeing the quilt!

    Hi Henry- here is a positive outcome to this situation- maybe these kiddos will all be attending college as they will want to see you again and so will go to the university where you'll be at :):):)
