Thursday, June 5, 2014   Pumphouse Alphabet  Part 2  The letters
in my Pumphouse quilt read left to right, then right to left,
then left to right, etc. I did this so I wouldn't have to think
about  the color sequence.  In my last post I showed the first
six letters in the alphabet. Here are the next six.  To size the
pieces count the number of squares. Each square is 1/8"  The
triangular serif at the top left of the G is 8 squares wide by 8
squares high. So it is 1" x 1".  Add seam allowances and you
need to cut a 1 1/2" x 1 1/2" square for the serif.  The piece
is square because all the triangles are made using the connector
corner method.  Which means you sew a square to a rectangle on
the diagonal, trim to leave a 1/4" seam allowance and then fold
back the triangle.  To be continued......  1 comment:    1. Very
cool! The letters make interesting block designs all on their
own. What fun!
