This appliquéd “Back to School Quilt and Nap Mat” will let a little one dream of ABC’s and 123’s!

“Back to School”
Designed by Phyllis Dobbs
The quilt is 40” x 60” which is a great size to roll up for easy stow away.
The finished blocks are 10” square & the unfinished blocks are 10 1/2″ square.

Appliqué patterns include the 123, ABC, apple & leaf!
These quilt blocks are just perfect for a toddler or preschooler!
You can easily adjust the pattern size for a larger quilt or a smaller wall hanging!
