Very interesting - thanks for sharing!!!
There is a quilt in the Shelbourne collection that is covered in letters embroidered and maybe appliqued in different fonts...really impressive!
that's a quilt? that is awesome. and letters like this are pretty easy to do free-pieced. I've seen a couple of quilts like this but of course can't think of where, off the top of my head.
I think there's one in the collection of the American Folk Art Museum here in NYC. It's just the words "TOBACCO SACKS" repeated 3 or 4 times across the quilt.I'll see if I can turn it up in my library.
