Bottom with leaves.

I was just looking through your letters book and rediscovered your chrysanthemum skies—I think a pale version of them on the bottom signs would look beautiful (I like the one with the leaves best as it nestles around the one house better). b

The signs are really nice. My pick is the bottom sign with the leaves which makes the sign more open than the flower sign. The light blue sky is a great idea. So it doesn’t slide, blend into the real sky, I would suggest a very thin line of black on the edge and paint the actual edge of the sign black too. Thanks and happy hooking.

Hello! I like the bottom sign with the flowers on the house. Easy to read with beauty and some pops of color.
Jeanne Coates
I like the bottom signs best.
Angela Quinn
Bottom signs are great-especially the bottom right
I think the background for the letters should be a solid to allow the letters to pop
Great live today!

My vote goes to the bottom versions. Sky would be a beautiful addition! I’m sure whatever Angela can create will be wonderful!

Definitely the bottom signs are easier to read. I find them more appealing, especially the one with the flower. Flowers speak for themselves but leaves need context or background to look their best.
The comment about making the sign easy to read by Barbara L R is very important. Unless one has been exposed to vision loss or disability it can be difficult to appreciate how important this aspect of signage is.
Your guests today were great. I predict that Mary-Lynne (?) is going to become a great rug hooker!

Great Mom’s coming home with a new hobby. Thanks girls. MaryLynn needed a break with her girls, sorry Canada…

Hi Mom, Mary Lynne and Beth, looking beautiful as are the rugs. Touch of blue to the bottom sky with leaves. For the new sign! Great show!
Diana
I like the top!
Barbara L Roberts
I like the bottom signs, more fluid and still illustrating the different styles. If sky goes underneath the lettering, that would be great too, as long as it’s super subtle and doesn’t compete with the lettering. People with reading disabilities and visual impairments can have trouble with background/foreground, and sans serif fonts work better for them, with both upper and lower case letters. Just a suggestion. Love the work!

Bottom Sign. Leaves and poppies? Too much?
Jacquie Wingert
I like the bottom signs. Those are cleaner, not so busy. Love the flowers and leaves. Love the Inspiration classes!
Kathy Worthington
I’m so glad I found you, Deanne! I hooked many years ago, but stopped for some reason. Then I found you on the internet. I’ve just finished a small kit and plan on starting another. You are a breath of fresh air!!
