Since I am using outlines of some of the US states, I thought I could use an outline of Quebec but it has a lot of curves. So I am looking through the dictionary and I come upon this word - QUILT! Duh double time.
Z they use the Zebra. One of the quilts has the three letters ABC in one block at the beginning and the XYZ at the end in another block. Justa suggestion.

I made an alphabet quilt for my niece's son a couple of years ago. Quilt was the first thing I thought of but I had no luck in finding a piece of fabric with a quilt on it. Of course, my BLT came to my rescue with the perfect piece of fabric with a quilt on a clothes line. Before she did that I thought of queens and quails and quarters. Couldn't find any queens or quarters but I did find a FQ of quails on ebay but the seller wanted $25. Yup, you read correctly. $25. I passed.
