Gardening Font Quilt
     Released June 23, 2009

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.

  47. JUST FANTASTIC

    Comment by sjwnana — June 24, 2009 @ 5:15 pm

  48. 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!!!

  66. Beautiful, I Love your quilt; I quilt with my embroidery items all of the time and this is a wonderful way to display the alphabet. Although I prefer to keep my quilts relatively small so that I can handle them.

    The first time I saw this alphabet it didn’t appeal to me at all but you did a great job with it by choising the right color. Well done !
