This is Toby’s Alphabet Quilt and the pattern is by Amy Bradley. If you follow this link it will take you to Amy’s website and you will see that the pattern comes with a colouring book as well! So cute!.
Toby did a wonderful job on appliqueing these cute characters with a blanket stitch. She asked for dense background fill so I did pebbles and I used 100wt white Invisifil. I stitched in the ditch around each character and letter. She also requested a meandering alphabet in the black outer border with a bright variegated thread so I used a Lava variegated thread there. That was fun to do!
Here are some close ups of the blocks.
You can see the meandering alphabet in the next pictures.
It is very windy today so this was the best shot I could manage to get of the whole quilt top.
So nice to see the sun shining after a week of rain and cool temperatures.
Absolutely adorable! Love the texture of the pebble quilting in the blocks! Well done!
