I made this quilt with my son's 5th grade class. I went in and had them design the blocks with pieces of fabric that I had put fusible webbing on.

I went to my daughter's class and each of the students designed a square. I took the squares home and sewed them together. This time I wanted to sew them on point to make it a bit different. She liked orange/turquoise so I had the orange around the border to keep the turquoise in the middle.
This is the back of the quilt. I tied in the orange/turquoise here.
These will be end of the year gifts for the teachers, from the students.
