I had a hard time getting all the letters in one photo. The background is Kona Cotton "Thistle." If you have a Kona color card, you know it's actually a very nice light lavender, not the "meh" grey it looks in my photo.
Here's a photo of the entire alphabet, lifted from WeShallSew on etsy:
Isn't it just the cleverest idea? The letters go together so quickly, making them is addictive! The pattern includes a good tutorial on curved piecing, and I also have a curved piecing tute here.
I'm planning to add a Bloc_Loc "Cogwheels" block to the quilt also. Tutorial next Tuesday!
Here's a photo of a cogwheels quilt, store sample from Cotton Candy Sewing Shop in Loveland. Aren't the blocks fun?
When the quilt is finished, I'll be offering a copy of "Love Letters" as a giveaway. But if you can't wait, you can get your own copy from Melissa's etsy shop, here.

ReplyDeleteThe cogwheel quilt is awesome! Cant wait to see what you make with it. Aubrey is cute too... Ive been already begging hubby about getting the pattern. I told him i want to make a quilt with my favorite scripture!
ReplyDeleteLove those mod letters. I dig the curved piecing! Looking good, Marti!
ReplyDeleteI can see why you are eager to make a cog wheel quilt, too. It's gorgeous!
Thank you for trying the pattern out -- and LIKING it! :-). I think the letters are pretty addicting, too. Your Aubrey quilt is adorable, and the back will be a perfect compliment to the front. You're pretty fab, Marti!
ReplyDeletethey do go together well - very clever and funky alphabet - it would be good in applique too.
ReplyDeleteWhat a neat idea those letters are! The colors in cog wheels are great!
