Aunt Nancy and her niece Joan are excited to start their quilt project. Using gingham and embroidery cotton, Nancy carefully plans and creates an apple design for her quilt block. She experiments with different methods of transferring the pattern to the fabric, eventually opting for invisible hemming stitches to applique the design.

Nancy Page Alphabet Quilt ~ Beginning
The Noah's Ark wall hanging series by Florence La Ganke for the Nancy Page Club has concluded, and the Alphabet Quilt series has begun. The series will run for 25 weeks, with a pattern available for purchase as a block-of-the-month club. The quilt, designed for a child's bed, features alphabet blocks with appliqued objects matching the letters. Aunt Nancy's quilt became a popular project for neighborhood mothers and aunts.
Noah’s Ark Pattern #8 ~ Cow
The quilt series concludes with the creation of a purple cow and a lavender companion. The animals are made by tracing a pattern onto felt, stitching, and embroidering details with black and lavender floss. The finished wall hanging, inspired by Noah's Ark, will be a delightful addition to any room.
