Book Titles

I have been experimenting with the fonts on my sewing machine.  I only have 3 fonts, so my book titles won't have a lot of variety.  Also, one of the fonts is a cursive script, which is very hard to read.  I probably won't use it.  I have 7 books titled now, 6 are a "set" of travel books, the block with 6 red books:


Notice that one of the books is put in upside down, thus, I had to put the title on the other way.  I might take needle and thread and make the "h's" and "l's" a little taller.  At least the font is read-able, if not too fancy. It'll do.  One sad thing is that when I was snipping threads, I also put a teeny tiny cut in the red fabric.  Just above the capital W in Werewolves.  I treated it with "fray-check" and ironed on a tiny piece of interfacing so it won't "grow", and I am gonna try to camouflage it with thread by making the W a little wider/longer.  Not sure if that will work.  The only other thing to do is dismantle the block and make a new book, which I probably would do, except I used scraps for this, and I don't think there is any of this red fabric left.  I am mad at myself for being so careless!  (Where's the naughty chair?)

Ok, back to work now!
