No clue what happend above
The fabric is called "abc with me" De Leon Design Group * The Alexander Henry Fabrics Collection c 2013.
Some will be just plain panels.
Today (1/12/2023) I went to the heart doctor—yearly stuff only and a lady was there with her scissors, embroidery floss, needle package and then fabric. It was all horses on a darker brown background. It’s beautiful with its tan back and borders. NO frame just being tied off. Of course, I asked about it and she said that it is a Prayer Quilt for nursing homes. I immediately thought that I could also do several of these into prayer quilts for the kids in a hospital. We talked for almost 45 minutes.

Last charity one I made was bed size 58 x 80 with no batting but fleece backing. I include 2 blocks of every fabric and sew in a label that says “ find 2 matching blocks.” I’ve been told I Spy quilts are good learning tools for non English speaking children.
