The lists were deliberately filled with words that weren't literal and used some of the "trickier" letters.
Students had to pick a word, and sew it up using different fabrics.
I wanted them to push the letters around a bit, and use their fabrics to their full potential.
After she made her word, one student commented, "I don't think I'll ever look at fabric the same way again."
I was thrilled, because that was exactly the point! I wanted the students to be confident to make free-pieced letters, but I also wanted them to get a sense of the possibilities.
