ABC Baby Blocks

"Whether it is for a holiday or a baby shower, these ABC baby blocks make a perfect gift. The soft cuddle fleece fabric is contrasted with the shiny satin of the letter applique. Each block only takes around 20 minutes to sew, and can be completed by anyone with basic sewing skills.

Ideas:

– Use different textured fabrics on each side.

– Insert a bell into the foam.

– Use a layer of cellophane under the cuddle fleece for a crinkly toy.

– Insert loops of ribbon in between the seams."
