Might you know where I could find a pattern or book that has a pieced alphabet? I am wanting to do phrases in quilts for my grandkids. Thanks!

There's a book called "Katie's Alphabet Quilt" by Marsha McCloskey. It has 5" high paper pieced alphabet and numbers. I have a pristine copy that sold for $$12.95. I'm willing to sell it for $7 which includes postage. PM me if interested and I'll take photos for you.

Go to Quilters Cache and look under the word alphabet. They have every letter.

I have seen some at Quilter's Cache, and also the book "501 Quilt Blocks" published by Better Homes and Gardens has a pieced alphabet in it. you might check your library.
