Kevin Latimer Posted May 3, 2017 Report Posted May 3, 2017 So i took a Steve good pattern (dancer mom) and altered it. Removed the original dancer and just stuck with MOM. I then used the "O" in mom for a 2" photo insert. (picture of final piece attached). Now i would like to do one for DAD for fathers day ) Obviously since there isn't an "O" in DAD it wont work the same. Was wondering if anyone could help with a pattern, maybe DAD with a space for a 2" photo insert to the right or left of DAD....I don't know . thanks in advance. BTW. just an FYI I originally intended to do the mom one just for me, My mom passed away last year. when i posted it on Facebook, it went crazy 5 orders for it just in one day. The 2" photo inserts are on sale now at www.klockit.com for $4 a piece down from $9 back in January. Phantom Scroller, jollyred, frankorona and 1 other 4 Quote
Scrolling Steve Posted May 3, 2017 Report Posted May 3, 2017 That turned out great, Kevin ! Kevin Latimer 1 Quote
meflick Posted May 3, 2017 Report Posted May 3, 2017 Very nice adaptation Kevin. I think your idea for Dad would work or you could make it a small rounded "a" and add the insert to the round part of the "a" perhaps. Would probably work pretty well that way if you could find the right font to give you the look you need for the "a". Thanks for sharing. Kevin Latimer 1 Quote
JOE_M Posted May 3, 2017 Report Posted May 3, 2017 There are fonts that are more rounded than others. You could use one of them and place the picture in the top part of the A. I've attached a couple of ideas. I googled "fonts with rounded insides" and grabbed a couple quickly, there might be better ones out there. dad1.dxf dad2.dxf Kevin Latimer 1 Quote
