I don't have a full quilt of McKim's "Nursery Rhyme Quilt" but I do have a few blocks that I found a few years ago. One of these days, I'll actually embroider one of these but I have so many projects in the works, I'm not sure when I'll get to it.
The maker of these used variegated thread and below are a few close-ups of the blocks.
One of my favorite websites belongs to Martha at "Q is for Quilter." She has focused on this pattern very nicely and has a number of posts about it. You can visit her blog post here.
Have a wonderful day!
I just love Ruby's work. These are great! I also love Martha's blog, she has an amazing collection of vintage patterns.
