I was trying to figure out how I wanted to sign the Postage Stamp Quilt and I ended up doing it like this:
I took a leftover (reject) strip from the quilt top...I had several to pick from...
Then I cut the strip to the size I wanted....
I ironed in the edges about 1/4" on all sides...
I ended up stitching it to the back of the quilt. Tried the heat and bond and it didn't work. I actually like this style of signature block but will use a different pen I think. In my test sample, my handwriting was beautiful and the ink was sharper. I used a Sharpie marker. Of course on my actual siggy block, my handwriting came out terrible, the ink looks smeary and it's quite all "squished". I suppose that is called character. lol
Looks great Melissa.
