These are getting better and better as you go.
Thanks, Casey. Some letters are more cooperative than others.
Another great post Lisa and the sketches, as usual, are inspiring. I love the little maid doing the dusting, what a great twist!
On a related note…I can’t wait to see what you come up with when you get to the letters ‘Q’ and ‘X’.
Thanks Rita. French maid = French curves. Feather duster = fan brush.
Yep, some of those letters just don’t want to play nice. I’ve been jotting down ideas as I run across them, but they’re few, and far between!
