EEEEEEEEEEEE

Because I can't count, I made 24 I's. I only needed 12.

I cut fabric for 24 H's before I caught myself. And I sewed them together in about 15 minutes and I didn't even take pictures. Oops.

So I used the extra crossbars from the H's to make the E's.  How did I do that?  Lemme show ya!

First I added a bit of background to one side of the "crossbar". I wanted the middle bar of the E to be shorter than the upper and lower ones.

 After trimming them down (I wanted the middle space about 1/2") I sewed the orange upper

and lower crossbars.

I cut them apart and then trimmed the edge.

 Then sewed the upright.

See? Twelve E's. These letters will finish out at the smallest size I think you can make them, which is 2-1/2" tall.

Which is the size of these letters on my tote bag.

Julie wrote to me, "I want to see you make 12 2-1/2" K's." She didn't say it like she didn't think I could do it. She said it like she was curious. How are you going to make your K's 2-1/2" tall?

If I can make a Q that size, I can make K's that size too, and I did, but it's past my bedtime. So I will show you tomorrow.

However, I will leave you with proof:

Those squares on my cutting mat are 1" (2.54 cm).
