Chemo Quilt

We have a lovely pupil at my school who has had a brain tumour.  Luckily it is not cancerous, and much of it has been removed, but next week he start chemo to shrink the remaining growth.

 Over the last few weeks, the children in his class, and all the adults in the school decorated a square of yellow fabric, and today I had a lovely morning creating this

 
90 minutes start to finish, then ten minutes to sew the binding on and now I just need to hand stitch the binding down
