alphabet (Missouri Star), top completed

 

Alphabet
81.5 by 59.5 inches

Made using the Missouri Star Easy Alphabet. I changed construction to use larger pieces for the backgrounds rather than their method of all squares. (I also altered their V.) Using Doug Leko's Simple Folded Corners tool (the small size) and Bonnie K. Hunter's Essential Triangles tool made this work. 
A straightforward alphabet! I like it, and because the letters came from my solids scrap squares bin, it was a quick sew.
Kona Cyan was used for the constant. I have just one border, cut 7 inches. I will bind it in the same.

A fitting end of piecing to a year that started with an alphabet.
This is my 5th. More are in the planning stage!

Merry Christmas 2021

Our tree was foraged from the fence line with my sisters when we were together on the farm earlier this month.
Janna got the big tree. Beth is holding the one I have at our house.
No ornaments this year as it is propped against the window in the pot.

another alphabet

I am winding down the year working on another alphabet quilt. This time using 
Missouri Star's Easy Alphabet.
I am revising the construction using larger pieces for the background rather than their method of using squares.
I use Bonnie K Hunter's Essential Triangle Tool and Doug Leko's Folded Corners tool in making this change.
The background is Kona Cyan. The scraps are from my solid squares bin, so this was an easy project to jump into.
