Alphabet Soup - Pattern Now Available!


I've been working on some embroidery designs for a while, took me longer than I thought it would...but, now...finally...they are ready! And, I'm very pleased with the final pattern!
The little quilt is 30 x 30 and uses twelve letters. However, all 26 letters of the English alphabet are included within the pattern...so you can pick and choose.
 
Can't choose? That's okay...just use them all and enlarge the quilt!
Each design fits nicely in the center of a 6 1/2 inch fabric square.
Or, just enlarge or reduce and use the designs for other projects...
there are endless possibilities!
Just ask my muse!
 
The designs can be stitched fast by using simple open style stitches like
these...
 
Or, use fabric for the letter...and closed style stitches like these...
...(pay no attention to the fact that I forgot to stitch two of the French Knots before taking this photo...geez!)
If you choose to use applique fabric as your method...you could...
Blanket stitch the edge of the fusible letters...
or, use needle-turn applique methods...
or, silk ribbon florals w/wool crewel embroidery...
or, gold work...see, my muse is still thinking!
 
The color palette is dependent on your choice of fabrics...
 
The pattern can be ordered in my Etsy Shoppe now!
