As a teacher and now as a parent, I always love(d) when Teacher Appreciation Day rolled around (May 5) because I loved receiving tiny trinkets from such dear, dear students. But now as a parent, I love making these tiny trinkets of appreciation for our children's teachers.
For our son's teacher, I crocheted a fuchsia peony and added a vintage earring to the middle. And then my -aha!- moment -- I sewed fabric leaves that are actually these petals from this flower tutorial I did. Versatile. I like that!
So, Mrs. Friday -- this is in appreciation for all that you do!

The peony is lovely and my favorite color too! Beautiful, she will appreciate it as much as she is being appreciated.
How totally awesome. Did you use a tutorial for the peony? Cherrie
looks very hard to make. It's beautiful.
Yummy! I love peonies. Can't crochet, though. Thanks for sharing your amazing talent.
Oh Dawn, I love your creativity and the beautiful things you create!!
Thanking our kid's teachers is important isn't it?!! Good on you.

I *heart* this!!! What pattern did you use? I would love to make one for my mother-in-law (who has EVERYTHING!!!)...which is code for myself. :o) This is just beautiful!
This is so pretty and so beautifully wearable. It's the same colour as the peonies in my garden. I love the combination of textures you have used. I can just see it on a bag or a jacket. I bet Mrs Friday loves it!
I bet she's going to love this! blessings, marlene
Lovely. She will surely love it

Wow, this is so pretty. I love peonies - all those wonderful layers of petals! Yours is beautiful and the earring center and fabric leaves are just right. Your son's teacher will just love this!
Dawn,
I am absolutely in awe with the beauty of your work!!! You must be proud of yourself! :)
Sooooo cute! I love peonies.
