    The quilt police would most likely arrest me for the way I did the lettering. I used a water soluble pen to draw the letters in scraggly, rambling ways then did the quilting then went back with fabric markers and colored them in.

    So in the quilting you just outlined the letters then colored them in? Smiles, I think I can handle that!! It looks great and adds so much.
