I'm overrun with letters and words

I've been sewing letters and words like a woman possessed...by letters and words. Yesterday I added some verbs to my word quilt made from word fabric. Here's what's on my desigh wall: my word project and my 2 B project. I've hit a wall with the bees and b's and be's. I think I've made enough, but now I don't know what to do with them.
I've used white and black backgrounds for the letters, plus pink floral for the bumble bees. The next challenge will be to pull it all together somehow. Or maybe I just keep making letters.

I really like the way the words are coming along! And I'm utterly charmed by those little bees. rm

What about using the words as a border? Make a center, then border it with words. Or use the words as the center, and border it with something else. The words look like so much fun. I am inspired to try my hand at it! Keep up the good work.

I love all those words. How fun. I am excited to make more words too.

so much fun to see both these quilts together.

Next step on BBBBBBBBs... Join the letters together for each word. Then add extra background around them. That will give you blocks to work with. If you know that you want a certain orientation to them (all words joined horizontally, vertically or both) then go ahead and piece them that way. You still don't have to know how they're all going to go together, but that will make it easier to play with them.
