Spell it out • Beautiful, bold letters in a modern typeface pack a punch in this new quilt pattern by Annie Brady for Bound Co.! Annie's Letra quilt goes perfectly with her brand-new Beyond Bella fabric collection for Moda Fabrics, which lands in spring 2023. This one was long-armed and bound by Narda Junda of Maz Q's (mazqs.com) – we love the way the tightly-packed wiggly quilted lines provide a contrast against the big, blocky letters. Find this beginner friendly, traditionally pieced pattern over at bound.shop
