Gardening Font Quilt

I completed by Garden Alphabet quilt and thought about sending you a photo.

I made the quilt last year when I became a lifetime member.

I used a garden print pborder and added applique flower pots.

  48. Jo Smoker says:

    Thank you for all the wonderful complements about my Garden Alphabet quilt. To answer some of the questions: the blocks were cut to 5 1/2 after they were embroidered on a 4 inch hoop size; the border fabric selvage says ‘Grandma’s Keepsakes …. Anna Krajewski Licensed to SSI D#80407′,(I wish I had purchased more of this fabric…. It was perfect for this project);and the applique flower pots were just randomly cut out of a clay colored fabric. The Alphabet stitches out beautifully so don’t miss it!!
    That’s for the ego trip!!!
