A group blog for working on UnRuly Quilting projects and most especially UnRuly Letters. What is UnRuly? Liberated, wonky, improvisational, mis-matched, points cut off FUN.

give me a B

So ~ let me preface this with the following:  when Tonya said Bah Humbug, I instantly thought of Scrooge, Charles Dickens, Victorian era fonts, and from there I jumped to beetles with those prickly, creepy, hairy legs and antennae.  Combining all this with my tendency to be overly detailed, here is what I came up with.  I won't be offended if this is not something you want to use, Tonya.  My mind just always leans toward the more complicated.  But then, you did leave us an option to be a bit more complicated, right????  I am going to try to simplify the next one.  I've still got a few more font ideas crawling around.
