GrampaJim Posted February 12, 2015 Report Share Posted February 12, 2015 I made one of the patterns in Jeff Paxton's book "words of Faith." A pastor friend saw it and asked me to do something like it with different words. Hmm, never did anything without a ready made pattern before. So, I figured out how to install a scroll friendly font on my computer and played around with it. I don't consider it a "real" pattern design, more of a layout. Anyway, delivered it today and they were happy with it. Jim jellis, LarryEA and tomsteve 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrampaJim Posted February 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Thanks for all your kind words. I really need to learn Inkscape and Gimp to make real patterns. So much to do and learn! Jim wombatie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wombatie Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 Your right Jim there is so much to do and learn, but you are off to a good start, pattern / lay out looks great and the cutting excellent. Marg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heppnerguy Posted February 13, 2015 Report Share Posted February 13, 2015 I agree with everyone else. Feels good to take on a new endeavor only to find out that you succeeded in doing it so well. Now it is off to the world of creating your own patterns and soon you will be getting more pattern requests, just wait and see.
