Started a new alphabet for the new year.
This one is based on a couple of cross stitch graphs that I found on Pinterest that do not have working links.
Making it with a 2 inch cut, 1 1/2 inch finished grid. Reds are cut 2 inches square. White (Kona Snow) is cut into lengths to fit grid
My notes for cutting the white pieces from 2 inch strips:
Squares Cut Finish
1 2 1 1/2
2 3 1/2 3
3 5 4 1/2
4 6 1/2 6
5 8 7 1/2
6 9 1/2 9
7 11 10 1/2
8 12 1/2 12
Rundown of my alphabet quilts. Several more on my to-do list.
a. B is for Beth, done with plaids and various red solids
b. I-spy alphabet
c. 30s repro alphabet blocks
d. 37 times around the sun, green with a bit of pink batiks on neutral batiks
e. Squares on teal
f. Checkerboard medallion with 1880s repros
g. Red and white capital letters
h. Eggplant chunky alphabet with batiks
i. current red and white lower case alphabet
Anyone know of a cyrillic pieced alphabet?
Google turned up an image of a Cyrillic alphabet quilt.

The link to Wet Canvas she gives is still available via the Internet Archive, and gives a little more info. I didn’t go further, to see if the maker’s website is still active.
