There has been some progress with our Spell It With Moda project. Three more letters have been added as requested in last week's comments: T, T, and S. To help see what it says, here it is in more hangman style:
___ ___ ___ ___ ___ ___ E
T ___ ___ ___ E
___ S ___ ___ ___ ___
___ ___ T ___ E
___ ___ ___ ___ ___
I'll be happy to take requests for next week's letters, too! 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 an inverse T. The color is the background rather than the letter. The blue is a combination of a linen look and a grunge look. I like it.
I don't have every detail of this project worked out just yet, and one challenge is that there was not enough in one jelly roll strip to make the complete background for this block. There is supposed to be one more strip on the right side and bottom of each letter. We'll see how that one works itself out.
The next two letters both come from the pink fabrics in this collection. I really like the pink. It is more of a hip, modern pink rather than anything that comes off as overly girlish.
S is the most complex letter sewn so far. It wasn't bad. There were just more parts to keep up with.
More yummy pink in the letter T.
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.
What letters should we try for next week?
