Teacher Appreciation Week

 is the first week in May.  They are collecting kitchen items to make baskets that the teachers can enter to win.  So this is one of the items I'll be donating.  I had a lot of cream colored charms and dotted backing left over from my Charming Stars quilt so I figured I'd make a runner.  The only thing left is to make a label.

Moda Bella Solid in Denim Blue

I'm not sponsored or anything like that but when there is a product out there that is just AWESOME - I want to share it.  I recently made a t-shirt quilt for Vickie and she picked denim blue & stone from the Moda Bella Solid collection.  Now I've used Moda's solids before but not the denim blue.  It's a beautiful dark blue and after I was able to touch it, I felt a small twinge...is this going to bleed?  I'm thinking...I'm not putting those t-shirts in harms way (work with me).  So, I did a test.  And there you have it, after about an hour, no bleeding.
