"A Is For Annabelle" Book Project

I've started another fabric book with panels
from a line of fabric by RJR Fabrics.  These panels
replicate Tasha Tudors book "A Is For Annabelle" and
were actually designed for a quilt, but I have decided
to make them into a patchwork block book.
One panel has the letters A thru M, the
other panel has N thru Z.
I have these coordinating fabrics.
The blue blocks.
The pink blocks.
I actually have duplicate panels so I'm making
2 books.  It's turning into a big project!  I will
take photos along the way and keep you posted.

For some reason my tutorial on the blanket
stitch didn't show up on my blog roll.  That's
my error,so here's a link in case you missed it.

    This will be a fun project to watch developing. I love the colors and soft illustrations.

    What a great project! I have many of Tasha Tudor's book, including this one. Wouldn't it be fun to make an Anna Belle doll, her wardrobe and all...

    I'm happy to see you crafting again Sherri, it is good for the soul. I love Tasha Tudor's illustrations and have several of her books.

    Just curious, how much of the pink, blue and pink on white print fabrics did you need for one of the books? I think this is a great idea, glad you put them on here to see. Teresa

    Teresa, Here is the down loadable link on RJR Fabrics for the A Is For Annabelle Book, it should give a break down of fabrics amounts required. I just used the fabric amounts I had, and did my own thing. You will see my book is a little different.
