This is great, but I wouldn't say you "adapted" it. Makes it sound like you changed the design, which you obviously only added verbiage.
(Just covering our collective bottoms.)
It's a really, really cute towel and I'll bet that dad was over the
To be clear, I have made changes far beyond just adding verbiage to the original design from Tattered Stitches. The changes I have made to the original design are in total compliance with the terms of the original digitizer which state:
There are no restrictions to editing. You may edit a design (resize, combine designs, add text, etc.) but the edited design remains the property of Tattered Stitch Embroideries and is subject to this licensing policy
What an appropriate gnome! I like that towel you put it on is just right for this design. Nice work!
