Yesterday I showed you how to make the letter 'e' and 'a'!
I have based my tutorials on Tonya Ricucci's book Word Play Quilts Easy Techniques from the UnRuly Quilter.

Today it is the turn of all those letters with a slanting line!
We need strips of fabric - one for the letters and one for the background.
Again we start in the middle of our block - I started with a strip of background then sewed my letter fabric at an angle face down to the face of the background fabric. Next I cut along the raw edge of the seam and sewed the little bit of background I had just cut off back onto my letter fabric.
Then I attached a letter strip to each side of my stage 1 block and ended up with the letter 'n' or turn it upside down for the letter 'u'.
Add another slanting letter section and another letter section and you have an 'm' or 'w'

Add a longer side section on the left and more background fabric and you have the letter 'h' ....
Leave the end section off on the right hand side and you have the letter 'r'!
Easy isn't it? Makes me think why I never did this before? Now you have the hang of it what words will you be making?
