    Default Alphabet Book

    I wanted to share a picture of the Alphabet book my daughter got from her grandmother. I just love all the detail that went into this book. I know the letters are out of order in the collage, but I couldn't figure out how to rearrange them. Check out Q, the page is a tiny quilt!

    Oh and the funny shape on the U page is the U.P. or the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and there is a dot where her great grandparents live.

    Grandma isn't a quilter and hasn't sewn anything in years, so this is extra special. I'll pass on the congratulations.
