ABC Quilt (Square in a Square and Geese)

Zeke is two and a half, and is beginning to love ABC books read out loud.  Time for an Alphabet Quilt!  Went out to the stash, I knew I had several, (and I do!) but the one I found right on top was the perfect fabric!  I bought it..... some time ago.  Probably before being a Grandma!

The alphas were all little Richard Scarry drawings, many of them little silly vehicles,  and characters from his books.  I cut them all to a 4 1/2 inch square, then took a charm square, cut it diagonally in quarters, and made a simple square in a square.

The geese were charm squares cut to two 4 /12" by 2 1/2 rectangles, with 2 1/2 " squares used to make the geese points.

Warm and White inside gives this one a little firmer texture, since I will hang it on the wall primarily, in the dining room, so we can look at it and discuss it often!
