To grow we must cultivate our seeds carefully. Nurture them and keep them
from harm. When they prosper we shall prosper as well.
MERRY CHRISTMAS
Grasshopper has so much to learn.
I bow to the masters! Beanies are done, and I guess maybe I will carry them next year. (now that I have the beanie cocktail recipe)

Ron, good looking sewout...I have a thought....instead of doing the full
'box' behind the bottom lettering -what about duplicating the lettering,
convert to lineart, and then using a low density fill pattern-it would be
directly underneath the lettering...would that work-anyone tried it yet?
I'm doing the 'box' underlayment on the christmas stockings and hats, but I
use the 'normal' walk stitch to outline the lettering about 1/8" past
it-then convert to a fill and do a real loose 60 count fill-so I don't get
'square edges' but more of an outline 'cloud' behind it. Ties down that
pesky fake fur real good.
And where did you find the Special Olympic logo? I had to screen print a
hundred of them last month-from a real bad inkjet printout of a horrible
webpage image. Duplicated it in freehand as vector lineart and just crossed
my fingers and hoped it was close to what it should be. They were happy with
it-but if I have to embroider it I'm not sure how accurate I really came
out!
