Love your back to school door hanging. I have a question? Do you stitch around every letter when you applique? I am fairly new to applique and it just seems some pieces would be hard to stitch down, for example inside the letter "A" you couldn't stitch that down could you?

I have my first grade Fun with Dick and Jane book! My teacher gave it to me because I was the best reader in class. My kids practiced reading from it and my granddaughter learned to read it before kindergarten. I bought a whole bolt of the original Dick and Jane fabric before it was taken off the market because of copyright issues. Michael Miller now has the rights to print certain images of Dick and Jane.

Oh yes, I remember Dick and Jane and Spot. Now I have great grandkids who can't and don't want to read. Thanks to our government and their political views. We have to be real careful and don't hurt anyone's feelings. Bah, humbug! Ha. I love your quilt.
