Hopper ,Good Morning.
Please see the attached photo , I changed your design slightly (hope
you don't mind) photo A was the design as you digitised it (minus the
ROO..lol) but it stitched out too dense so I enlarged it (PHOTO B) in
PE Design but didn't press the button that maintains the density and
fill . I felt that the lettering needed to be a bit bolder so removed
your lettering and then made a jpg of what I wanted in photodraw and
digitized it, then added it to your design. Photo c was the design I
went with and it looked great , sorry I didn't get a photo of the
fleece but I was a bit rushed at the end.I hope this makes sense and
as I have confessed before I'm very new at this but learnt loads just
by looking a your design and the different sections.
Please let me know your thoughts on the stich out (I was also
experimenting with the colours of the guns and text).The photo's are
not to good as I had to take them in artificial light as it's night
here.
