John Martin’s Book–March, 1927

Posted on March 22, 2010July 3, 2012 by Martha

Because I am still working on the embroidered Christmas quilt top, the Baby Doll quilt top and the latest Ann Champion block, I don’t have any photos right now — hopefully very soon, though.

While we’re waiting for me to finish something, here are some cute illustrations from one of my old copies of John Martin’s Book.

    Those are such lovely books! I am envisioning the E and the F puzzles as a redwork piece. I don’t know if I would have the patience to draw it out, but if it were a transfer, I would totally start a project with one of them!

    I love these old books – the style of drawing really appeals to me. People just don’t draw like this anymore!

    The March pages are really nice. I like the “F” puzzle page, but do not care for the “E” page. In fairness though, I must tell you that I prefer “F” because I found 18 words on that page as opposed to a measly 7 “E” words.

    Wouldn’t that second one be cool embroidered? and made into the centerpiece of a quilt?
