The Straight Letters
Fifteen letters made from nothing but the strokes of Sheet 2. The rule for every one of them: verticals first, then horizontals. Draw the frame, then hang the shelves on it. Most capitals fit a square or sit slightly narrower; M and W spread wide, and I is the narrowest letter in the alphabet. Let the exceptions be exceptions.
Where the crossbars sit
H · Center
E · At or Above
F · At or Above
The drills
1
Trace the champagne set, then the gray set beneath it, then fill the empty row. Verticals and horizontals first: I L T E F H.
2
One angle, everywhere. The nine diagonals: A V W X Y N M Z K. Every angle on the sheet should match.
3
The whole family, small. All fifteen at writing size, from memory where you can, then the open rows.
