MegD's envelope + quote.


Mr Wilson and I were both delighted with this. Adorable drawings and we love the quote. It seems to be a handmade envelope. 

Remember how much I loved MicB's envelope yesterday -- all the things I said about spacing apply to the quote below. Nice S. Letting it drop below the base line is another good way to avoid the common problems with S.

And I like the long middle stroke on the E. Does anyone remember when we had the big debate about the center crossbars on E's? Look at the crossbars in the word *OFF*. In that situation, it's OK to make the center crossbar shorter. She needed some white space between those two words.

I generally do not put in punctuation. In this case -- would a question mark have worked? I don't think so. It's a rhetorical question and I don't think you need a question mark with a rhetorical question. I need to research that.

OK - enough. I hope MegD is OK with the comments. She's clearly taken time to study lettering and design.

  1. Thanks for sharing, Jean! I’m glad you liked it and your comments are great. (I think it should have had a question mark!)
