What NOT to do. It has been stressed over and over not to enlarge but a certain percent. I, however, have a gonna be 8 year old Monday, that doesn't accept that. He wanted this truck, on his hooded towel I made him. I kept telling him it wouldn't look good,as it was too small, 3 1/2 in x 2 1/2 in. Two separate designs.One track was almost 4inx 1 1/4in. I used it twice and added the truck, at an angle ( what little boy doesn't want it to pop up?-lol), then enlarged it a LOT 4.5inx7 !!! I know it was too much, didn't I say I told him that?! The outlines are off ,and left a few places in the truck itself, that has the towel showing through. Showing through the under carriage is okay, suppose to show, but not the truck bed,windows,tires,etc. The designs are fine , I am sure, if left in their original size. I will tell you where they are from but remember I haven't stitched them in their orginal size. One thing though. I think because it is on a towel, it is forgiving. What I mean by that, it fluffs up around the design, or it will when I rinse it out. Like it or not, my little stubborn 7 year old will get it monday, when he turns 8 !-Toogie...Truck-Designsbysick-Big Wheels #8....Tire tracks-Sewforum by Daddy T
