by Alisa My littlest niece headed to her first day of preschool this week. When we were talking about her going to school a few weeks ago she told me, "But I don't know my letters!". I assured her that they would teach her the alphabet and there was nothing to worry about. But she was clearly concerned, so when I saw this Missouri Star fabric letters tutorial on YouTube I knew I had to make them. Luckily I had all of the supplies in my stash: a white Kona solids charm pack for the letter fronts, blue Kona yardage in Harbor for the back and Bosal fusible foam stabilizer . My Bosal was double-sided fusible, rather the recommended single-sided fusible; but it worked fine. I also had a new set of Pilot FriXion erasable pens that I hadn't tried out yet for fabric marking. They were amazing -- easy to write with, and disappeared at the touch of the iron. I cut 6-inch strips from the backing and the fusible foam and ironed them together from the fabric side. ...
