None of what we got had the season on like yours or were seasonal at all. OK now tell me you added the season wording on your own!!!! Just love this!!
Thanks for your lovely comments! The designer of the fall and autumn blocks included the lettering in their rows. The PA Row By Row was my inception. I needed to balance the quilt with something, so I chose to identify the event on the left side of the quilt. The right side is the shoo-fly block from a shop in Lancaster County, PA. For my letters and numbers, I found a font I liked on the internet, printed them out, cut, glued them down (I was out of fusible), then zigzagged all around them. All those snowflakes are zigzagged, too. This was a super-fun project to make!
