This is a super cute quilt for a colleague. Well actually a colleagues soon to be first grandchild.
While I was the student learning coach, Kathy and I worked closely together as we trained the staff on our new curriculum. Of course working closely together means you learn lots about that person. Kathy learned that I quilted. So of course when she found out she was going to be a grandma, she requested a commissioned quilt.
She said that the nursery was going to be gray and yellow and the mom loved elephants. So of course I had to show her jungle bungle and once she saw my original jungle bungle quilt she wanted a repeat. Normally, I don't do repeats. However. I made an exception and I am glad I did.
Kathy was so happy with the quilt. That of course made me happy. The new momma and daddy were happy.. So all around happiness is a good thing.
I actually finished this quilt right before school started up again. I just haven't really felt like posting. I know.. I know... slacker :) I wish I could say, that I am getting back into the flow of things and that I will be back to quilting and blogging... but we will see.
