Spell It With Moda - Getting Closer



Wow, we're getting close to solving this puzzle. Fifteen letters have been revealed with our Spell It With Moda project. Only thirteen more to go. This week we added an I, an O, and an L. To help see what it says, here it is in more hangman style:

___  ___  ___  I  ___  ___  E

T H  ___  R  E

I  S       ___  O  ___  ___

___  N       T H E

___  ___  R  L  ___

These letters have been guessed and either there aren't any or all that are available have been guessed:
 H, R, S, T, M

Did you notice that the business card place holders have been replaced by colorful filler blocks. There will be a tutorial about those coming up soon over at the Moda Bake Shop. I will be sure to let you know when it goes live.

Keep those comments coming! It won't be too many more weeks before this quilt puzzle will be solved. Let's take a closer look at the fabric used in this week's letters. The fabric collection is Flow by Zen Chic. It should be available at your local quilt shop or favorite online shop in March.


First we have a yummy orange I which completes the word "is" in our puzzle.


I was very excited to be able to make this project from this fabric collection and the more I sew with it, the more I love it. The bright colors are fun and festive and just make me want to smile.


Another one of those inverse letters, where the letter fabric and the background trade places. I wonder if those letters have any special meaning?


A close up of O surrounded in pink.


And last but not least, letter L, which has to be the simplest letter to sew out of the bunch.


And a close up of letter L, using the orange fabric that looks like a relief map.

Remember, if you'd like to make something of your own, the letters are available individually on Moda's Pinterest Board.


Or, if you want a quick resource with everything in one place, check out the Spell It With Fabric booklet available at many local quilt shops and online stores. I did a quick Google search and found some great resources for purchasing the booklet.

There are lots of other quilters sewing along with the Moda Bake Shop 7th birthday celebration. Head on over to their blogs if you'd like to see what they are up to.

    1. The guesses are all made for this week. There will be a B, a W, and an O for next week. But I think it would be a good idea to ask for an E next week, too. Thanks for playing!
