The C is pretty simple. A center block, with a piece added to one side, then the other, then the other. Add a spacing strip to the right side and that's it.
Here's the fabric I selected for the letter C.
Did I choose that particular fabric on purpose? Did I -plan- to use the pattern in the fabric this way (to mimic the C shape)?

Well, yeah.

Look at your fabrics. Look at the patterns. Look for ways you can take advantage of them, and make your viewers say, "Look at that - that is so cool."How did I get inspired to make the C look like this? (skinny bottom, wide side, medium width top?) I was flipping through Tonya's book, and there was a letter U I liked. When I turned the book on its side... presto change-o... a cool letter C! So when I tell you to try look at things in new ways, that's exactly what I mean.
