Making embroidered wedding gifts


These towels involved free-style embroidery, which made me really nervous. And then there was the task of finding an appropriate font for the newly-wed couple. I'm not sure about the one I chose in the end, but I do like the humorous twist that I took at the last minute:


My "J" and my "M" aren't entirely obvious representations, so you can see why I felt some assistance was in order.

Erin! These towels are soooo nice! I really like the font, and the clarification! So does Marc!

Also, you chose VERY nice towels to embroider...they are soft and not too poofy. They are a nice size, and wash really well. They are: a hit!

ALSO: Yay! A post! I've really missed your internet presence.
