Op Art Letter Fabric Panels for DIY projects: Pillows, Curtains, Quilts
Author: Tracy Sigler | Posted: November 16th, 2008 | | Tags: fabric, pillows | 6 Comments »The letters have been broughten, peoples. Yeah, I said “broughten.” I was originally going for an Art Deco flavor but these ended up more like op art, which I also like. The plan was to use these panels to make Letter Pillows, and that is still going to happen. But why wait on us? We’re adding these to our Etsy store and folks can use them to make anything they want. In addition to pillows I can imagine piecing these panels together to make quilts, duvet covers, tote bags, chair cushions, wall hangings, table runners, what else? I’d love to hear your ideas.
Each panel is 17″ square with a half inch seam allowance for a finished piece of 16″ square. The fabric is a 7 ounce organic cotton poplin. As green as we can get!
In addition to all 26 letters we printed yardage of a matching concentric square pattern, terminating with our anvil logo in the middle. The plan is to use these for the letter pillow backs, but they look pretty cool just hanging on the wall. Curtains? I don’t know. We may offer this for sale as yardage.
This pic of the anvil is reasonably close to actual size, maybe a little larger.
Later tonight I’ll post a graphic showing all of the letters. UPDATE: And here they are. Click for bigness.
