Signing Your Stitching

[SofaraStarfyre]

Oh MY GOSH! Thank you so much Sofara! That paw is awesome and I love the idea of backstitching a MT in it as well. Thank you Queen B, as well, for wanting to attempt it.

Can't wait to start signing my paw on the dotted squares! :D

Thank you Mei! I am glad you like it!!

I usually use a thread which stands out against the background, but maybe I can do something. Something like how J.R.R. Tolkien did with his initials. Sadly, mine are pretty plain: SDS.

Honestly, I don't think I've ever really given a huge thought to how I sign my works. Just did my initials and the date. Hm....something to think about....

No initials are plain, you just need to find a pattern that works for you! I've come up with this for you;

messed up on stitching it

I hope it at least gives you something to think about...

Sofara, that paw looks awesome! It would be perfect as a signature. I think it would look just as cute without the backstitching, but that's just me and my unwarranted loathing of it. This has definitely gotten me to thinkin' about how I could sign my work with something symbolic instead of just my name. Hmm....

If you need a hand making one up feel free to share ideas on this thread and see what we can come up with

Here's what I have so far for mine, what do you think?

may need a different white...

Love the backstitched sigs! They look clean and elegant, and would be a proud addition to any hard-worked project.

That looks awesome QueenBex and so does the one you did for Kareesh!

I am still thinking about what to do for my own. I have an idea but not sure if it will work.

Wow! Thanks QueenBex. It looks awesome. I may have to start using this. Much better than the blocky version I've been signing with.

Thanks and they prove to come out small too

Whats your idea?

No problem, you can always play around with it, see what works best for you, the more you stitch it the easier it will become
