From My Pieced Alphabet

Braeside

Pieced alphabets often have cut corners to indicate curves. With Braeside I've taken the cut corners to the extreme.











I like the result. There is a tension where the diagonals and verticals meet that gives this alphabet a lively feel.












The piecing for the "b" is typical of the letters in this alphabet.

The sewing consist of straight seams and 45 degree connector corners; neither of which is difficult.  However, it does require precision and is probably not an alphabet that a beginner would want to try.
