A few years ago, I saw a hint of an alphabet pattern Carolyn Friedlander had posted on Instagram, so when I saw the pattern appear last week, I nabbed it because I liked it, not really because I knew what I wanted to make with it.
But it didn't take me long! In all these years, I'd never made an A Quilter's Table banner, and it seemed the perfect use for Carolyn's alphabet. I designed mine similar to Carolyn's style - i.e. the letters were stacked, and not necessarily in complete-word order.
I can see that a couple of the letters might have benefited from a redo so they were more visible, but I'd already done that a couple of times, and in person, I really liked it just the way it was.
Front, back, and binding, this mini quilt (19" x 24.5") was made entirely from Carolyn's fabrics, some of my very favorites.
Quilted with a one-inch grid, I used Aurifil 50wt 2840 [Loden Green] throughout the grid, except for Aurifil 50wt 2870 [Green] for the horizontal quilting in the darker green section at the bottom.
This was such fun, and I really want to do something else with these letters and fabrics. One of these days!
