I am struggling with this design. I can not seem to get the wheels to look right. When i digitized it (6×6) I didn't realize it would come out so big... lol. Once I get the wheels aligned then I can work on the stitches. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you Linda

I think I would try using the front full wheel and fix any stitches you don't like then copy and paste it to the back but reduce it a little until it looks right. (You know how things farther away look smaller.) Do the same thing for the front wheel that's partially hidden except remove the section on top.

Also draw a line from the bottom of the front wheel parallel to the lines of the wood across the wagon. That will give you the right spot to put the bottom of the back wheel. I hope you get the idea. I put a link to a Perspective Drawing site.

Good job so far!

A temporary line of course for the perspective.

my mother bought me a book on how to draw and a bunch of craft books. I'm loving it

I guess that won't make the trip. Love the design. I have been wanting to do a wild west quilt.

I am having problems with the wheels... lol. I also think I will scale it down some. It is almost 29000 stitches.
