Finished!

I've finished my 'place' alphabet - yippee!

Here are Y and Z just to tie things off.

Y - is for Yellow Cabs - one of those iconic movie images of NYC.

Z - how lucky there was Zabar's, a fabulous deli with delicious things


And here's how I put it together. A wee flip book in a way; a really nice way to flip through the memories.

Ac couple of the letters, not all of them...

Letters from Louise

Free form alphabet has see through letters with a quote behind, displayed in an accordion book that fits into a little box.









My PLACE alphabet is made into a garland of old maps and each letter is a place that means something to me. On the letter is the Morse code (which is universal) for that letter in raised silver leaf.

JGR last of second alphabet

Here are my last six letters of my second alphabet.
                                                       WOW, this year has flown by . . . .
                                                          scroll down  . . . . . .
                                                         to see the final piece . . . .


Very simple assembly this time, using (as always) items from around
the studio: Hole punch and small metal fastener. 
Thank you for visiting!
