SEW...what do you think? I finished the "I Spy' topper...and decided a name at the top was in order. I have a book of letters...SOMEWHERE...but of course when you NEED something it always goes into hiding! So I drew my own letters...positioned them at the top of the quilt, in the middle...then moved them to the side...UGH! The letters were too small!
I kept the M the same size but made the lower case letters much larger...
SEW much better, don't you think?
I will buy some matching thread today and machine applique the letters down and then it's ready for quilting! (happy dance!!)
Mason's birthday is in June...so I am ahead of the game! The quilt turned out much bigger than I thought it would...but then...it IS a BIG BOY'S quilt! I Spy some fun happening with this quilt!
More importantly, I Spy a new project looming in my future!! YIPPEE!!
Have a magical Monday and Happy Stitching!~P
