Alphabet Quilt

Quilters often make small quilts for the children in their family. A baby quilt is usually the first project a new quiltmaker will undertake. Grandmothers also join the celebration of new family members by making quilts for their grandchildren, as is the case with this Alphabet quilt made by Martha Alma Baker for her grandson Billy Baker. 

The Alphabet Quilt, designed by Florence La Ganke, was published in newspapers, generally over a 25-week series, as part of the Nancy Page Quilt Club.
