Hello!
I wanted to make a plaque kind of cross stitch for my cousin with this Irish saying:
May all your wishes come true. Except for one, so that you always have something to strive for
in this text font:

with these clovers (I would like at least 3 of them, please):

and I would like his name to be either centered at the bottom or top (whichever looks better).
His name is Toryn
Thank you!

Here is one I did....it has 4 clovers....one in each corner...I made it as small as I could without completely distorting the text so it was unrecgonizable. It's still pretty large though and I personally would add a 2 strand bacstitch around the text to give it definition and to make it look like the original with the black out line. Other than those pointers, here ya go! Hope it helps!

Spoiler

Here is the pattern:
