Senior Night

My daughter plays volleyball for Chugiak High School.  Her senior year was what she had hoped it would be...a concussion early in the season sidelined her for all but a few games.  She sat on the bench and cheered for her team.  Although our team lost, senior night was a success.  We had a great crowd of students in attendance to show their support.

In all, we have five seniors on the team.  I wanted to do something special for them all, something to remind them of high school, volleyball, teammates and friends. I thought about a t-shirt quilt, but those tend to end up in a box in the attic.  The only thing I could come up with that would last and grow up with them was a quilt in school colors.

Six weeks later....three quilts using the Road to Bali pattern, one Friendship Star quilt, and one Square Dance.  The smiles say it all.  I am so very proud of all of them.
