Playing with Blocks

Rosewood









My Rosewood alphabet (See 4 May 2010) was designed for on point quilts. The letters are spaced far apart so words take up a lot of room. But it does what it is meant to do.

What if I were to use these letters in a quilt that wasn't on point?







I get an alphabet where all the letters are tilted 45 degrees. The words don't take up as much room as before and they are readable even though there are no spacers between the letters.
