I am a little indecisive, because if I found a pay for version for say $30, I would have the entire series of letters. The way you created the shapes for the J, is more accurate, and does have the slotting for the top of the J - I can't decide which I like better. Your cutout triangles in the F are larger and look better, and now I can't decide if I like the cutout in the left straight part with the little triangle cutout you made or or leaving it straight better. Thank you for for providing these options.

Thank you for suggestions for the J and Finding a font. Ignore my comment on the F, some logo guidelines would recommend it that way.

Nancy, it has been a learning curve for all of us. Your design is very good as is so use that. When I tried the font, I had to kern, track and baseline shift almost every letter to get things lined up.
Using inset and outset contours is a very powerful tool.
Should you want to use the Font, do convert to Editable Shapes and ungroup twice. You then have a separate shape for each gylph.
The F then becomes a White shape over the black letter F. You can then Slice Shapes to get a cut-out.
Apologies for offering so many choices.
