I need help with some names.

I am making some bags for gifts for friends and teachers gifts before school gets out. I need them in 4x4 for pes format preferbly in a cursive font (girly).

the names are:

Neighbor

Monkey Girl

Ms. Piggy

Ms. T

Mrs.
Dangerfield (Mrs. Centered over Dangerfield)


and

P.
George (P. centered over George)


I really appreciate your help with this. I admire everyone that can digitize. I hope that one day I can learn to do this.


Thanks again

Tia

....unless you have received a better offer! I love doing lettering!

Do you want all the names in the same type of font? I assume by 'girly' you mean fine stroke, handwritten looking fonts? a cursive sort?...nothing cute, bold or silly? If you look up a few ttf fonts like computers use and can give me their names I can see if I have or can get that font into my digitizing program. Some fonts that look good on the drawing board end up looking awful when you embroider them out so you will have to do a test run on these before you stitch then on anything good,
How soon do you need them? What sorts of material do you plan on sewing them on?
I am up way past my bedtime right now but I will run up a few for you tomorrow when I get up.
Does that sound okay?!

GNite!

I have a killer headache this mornin' (nope, I was not 'partying'...I'm too old and boring for that lol) and the last thing I want to do is run my behemoth of an embroidery machine but I wanted to get these to you...
So...test sew first!!! Embroidered fonts can be 'moody' on different fabrics. See if you like them, each is a different font. If there are any major issues let me know and I will do my best to help make it right.

I am sorry I did not get screen grabs of the images..if you have any previewing/design organizing software OR if your machine allows for a preview (most do) you can see them using that...if not it only takes a few minutes to sew these out. If worse comes to worse I will try and get images later in the day if I feel a bit better...sorry

Silver

ps I would like to see a pic of the end project if you use these....

[mickeymouse225]

thank you very much. I will try them when i get a chance. I am putting them on canvas bags. I will send you the pics of them when i complete them I do not mind.

Were you able to digitize the one for

P.
George (with P. on centered on top of George?)


Thank you for all of your help. I hope your headach goes away and that you feel better!!!! I woke up with one myself...

I will let you know if i can view them as soon as i get home to view them and start to stitch them out.

Thanks so much.

hi Silver and Tia,
So sorry you're both 'headachy' today! Think it might be spring allergies? All my trees are blooming, and my sinuses are about to explode I just wanted to say how nice it was of you to be able to help Tia, Silver. Gee, I wish the whole world worked this way Can you imagine Paradise
Hope you both feel better,
Marji

[Silver]

uh oh... Missed poor P. George...give me a minute I will add it here.


Silver

ps My Dad always taught me that if I wanted people to be nice to me I needed to be nice to others... I kept that in my heart even tho I lost my dad many years ago and to my surprise I realized that being nice to others made me feel nice...no need for any pay back.

[mickeymouse225]

I saved them all and viewed them. I love them. They are all differnt. I love them. I cant wait to embroider them.. Havent had time yet tonight, but hopefully tomorrow evening i can start them and have pictures for you to see.

Thank you again for your time helping me out!! It means so much to me!! I hope your feeling better!!

[Silver]

I am glad that you like the way they look. I always try to do my very best... I wish I had greater digitizing skills than I do but lettering has been one thing that I have had great success with...
I did make them all different, I hope that is okay. I have always found that people love personalized gifts and if you do them so that they are a bit 'unique' from each other they feel a bit more 'special' than using the same style for all.
The fonts are ones I thought would stitch out nice and even. Some fonts are fancier and look good on paper but stitch out poorly. If you have any problems with one of these let me know...
I do feel better, thanks. I hope you are feeling better too.
I am glad I had this opportunity to help, it is always nice to meet other members of the 'DesignsBySick family'...

sincerely
