Hi Herb, I was hoping you could help although I really should be able
to do this myself. I am planning to embroider them on white canvas and
cut them out after so no applique and no fill in, just the words, dots
and border. the finished size should be about 7x 2.7 cm and the
border should be about 1.5-2 mm thick with rounded corners.
How did you determine the font? I can't see that from my file.
Thanks a bunch if you are able to do it.
-Kirsten
