These little booklets by Moda came into the shop where I work, and Katja offered to give one away to one of you readers. The patterns are jellyroll friendly and easy to piece. The booklet includes patterns for the whole Alphabet as well as several blocks so you can create a quilt measuring 59 x 68. To sweeten the pot a bit I've added some fat quarters of Chantilly by Lauren and Jessi Jung for Moda. Sooooo pretty.
Just to give you a little inspiration, here are a few things I've made using letters:
My word for a donation quilt
A baby quilt for Memphis
So if you think you might like to 'Spell it with Fabric' just leave a (one) comment on this post and I will choose a winner later in the week.
******please make sure I can contact you.
Thanks so much for stopping by.

This book looks like fun. My friend made a quilt with all the boy scout words on it. It turned out great.
This would be so wonderful. I was working on my Christmas quilt, I know I'm running a little late, and really wanted to put Merry Christmas in letters but couldn't figure it out. Since I am still working on that quilt, I am determined to get it done, if I get lucky it will be ready for next year.
Great quilts and lovely fabrics! I've only made one small word quilt before and I kind of just "winged it".
I am a huge fan of quilts that speak!!!

You have made some great projects with the letters. It would be fun to give it a try.
All quilts need words even if they are only on the back. Since I need to follow my own advice, I'd better start making letters.
What a great concept. I am doing a mini Love quilt for Feb
Love the idea of this booklet - and gorgeous quilts made with it!
Such a super idea that I've never thought of for myself so what a joy it would be to give it a go with such fab fabrics. Thanks so much for the chance to try something new for the New Year.

I have been waffling over getting a letter pattern as it seems it would be useful. I suppose winning one would be better, eh? Thanks for the chance.
I would love to try and spell with fabric, I'm learning to sew. This looks like fun.
This would be great! I have to make a quilt, spelling a girls name. I haven't gotten around to drawing out the patterns yet. This would save me the trouble (and probably would look much better, too). Thanks for the chance.
I would love to make a modern quilt that says Live Joy.
Let's make lots of word quilts
