Teacher appreciation door

I did the door for Zach's class and thought that it would be easier to build the whole thing at home and then just stick it on the door. The idea was to save time the day that it had to be put up. I liked the way that it turned out but I invested a lot more time then I would have the other way. But his teacher was happy with the way that it turned out and now she has a display for the door that she can take down and put up over and over.



The theme was out of this world. I also got an extra class picture and cut everyones face out for the stick figures on the earth and then his teacher is inside the rocket ship. I sewed most of it on by machine and then hand stitched everything to make it look a little more decorative. I thought that was a good idea and was happy with the way that it turned out but it did take a lot of extra time to finish and once I had started there was no going back. Overall I was happy with the way that it turned out.
