In Loving Memory-I have heard it said,'some people never learn', evidently I am one. I resized these letters so it would fit my 4x4,and still I re-hooped 3 times.Because I had to shrink sooo much this is the price. Looks like when someone is trying to write with a bad ink pen, and they are trying to trace over. The flower design stitched well but I didn't have to resize it.Wanted to give to my niece and nephews, not worth framing now.Do you think it would look to bad as a pillow for the bed?-toogie

Well, I like it. To me it is one of a kind. You probably couldn't duplicate. Each time would be different. So you have a unique piece.

Toogie, what a pity. Yes this font is very fine, so when you reduce it, it does not stitch out correct.
If you like send me a PM will try to help you, resize. Hugs Yvonne

Turned out well considering font size! Follow your heart with the pillow.

Its a preety font and nice layout. Its hard to reduce fonts and this one is very delicate. I wish more fonts like this would be available for samplers.

The font is in DBC -Script font by castelyn. In all fairness, I believe the font is good, it is just because I tried to downsize it, that I had trouble here.I love the font,thank you,Castelyn, just don't like what I did here. The heart design is sadia in my file. I did do the writing/saying with Castelyns font.

We can't see it as closely as you can, but it looks fine from here! I'd be more inclined to frame it than 'pillow it' myself, but each to their own!

Don't feel bad I played around with lettering all afternoon yesterday and I have a sample mess. lol Now I need to take my machine apart and give it a good cleaning. I would rehoop the fabric and put a monogram in the flower design and use that portion in a pillow.

It is a shame. I am not one to be wasteful and throw it away, on the other hand I am not satisfied with the stitching.

I think it turned out really well - considering the size of the font. I like the idea of a bed pillow, too.
