I am stumpped!
« on: November 07, 2011, 05:02:31 pm »
A co-worker of my wife lost her brother to a train accident. The company he worked for helped out a lot with funeral arrangements and she me wanted to make a item as a memorial/thank you for their help. The company is a roofing company and she wanted something themed to that with the words

Vertex  " Nobody's as good as "  then she wanted something like...   

In memory of Tracy Willaert

" I'm good "
 
9-25-11 

I have fooled around with several patterns and I just cannot get anything I really like that all the text will fit on good. I at first came up with a circular saw blade with the Vertex " Nobody's as good as" but then the rest of it won't fit plus I am not to good with doing text work.  I had thought about going with this and then doing a house with the rest of it and hang the saw above the house with some string

Any ideas or better yet someone come up with a pattern for me?

I have a suggestion.
I would make a 3/4 corner view of a house with the words "Nobody's as good as" on the roof and then "I'm good" on the wall (side of the house) and then "In memory of Tracy Willaert" below that.
As far as size, you will just have to play with that. There is a lot of lettering to cut on this one.
Hope that helps or at least gives you another idea to play with.

Hey Paul, That looks great!!! I think I am going to go with this..

On a side note...I just finished cutting out the little football player and the little cheer leader that you made for me a while back. I'll see if I can get some pictures loaded up tomorrow. They turned out good!


Thanks,
Kevin

Kevin,
Here is another for your consideration. Cut the white.
Have attached an example of how it could look cut out.

Wow!! Two great patterns..I like the guy on the roof, that is awesome. I probably would have chose that one except I didn't see it until I got this one done. Thanks very much guys for your help..

Thanks again,
