Of all the letters, I dislike making an
uppercase "Q" the most. A tiny "X" in the corner of an "O" --- argh! Just agonizing!
So I came up with this version. Step one, make a sideways "C"

Slice it apart diagonally (or even almost crosswise)

Pull it apart, and insert...

the tail of the "Q"

Sew it up.

(I have a confession - I had to trim the lower right corner before I sewed it to the top piece with the tail. If you make one, you'll figure it out.)

fantastic - very clever!
Thanks for that idea. I don't like doing that letter either, but that may now change.
I've never had to do a Q, but when I do I'll remember that. Bit like putting the chimney on a wonky house.
