[QUOTE=kiffie2413;7475311]Thanks ladies!
Windblown,
What a great idea! I'm not sure I'm getting the sid part, tho. Do you mean you do sid 1st, and then go back and mark like lines on a paper to follow when you do the fmq writing? (similar to when writing cursive on ruled paper was taught back in the day..though you may not be an old-ish gal like me...lol)
I can say when I have practiced on say a 12" square, writing my name is easier than stippling is for me.
Kif sorry That sid part was not very clear was it. Yep exactly like (penmanship class)so now you know how old I am
lol.. . I had several baby strip quilts, so I sid 2" apart then used the soap sliver to write on the quilt top I follow this somewhat after I get going, it's just there to keep size and word spacing correct, nursery rhymes, names,dates anything. The soap will wash right out when you are finished. Everyone seems to love the ones I have given them.
