Title: LOVE letters sign puzzle pattern
Post by: Pirosog on January 08, 2015, 08:13:58 pm
Hello guys,

I have seen this sign, offered by a couple of people in different countries, which looks exactly the same - font, the pieces that hold the letters together, so I guess there is a pattern. I have seen a couple of those signs. -f.e. Mom.

Thanks.

The font is Cooper Black

I have done in Inkskscape

Create test in cooper Black and set size 1 inch - 72 points  ie 2 inch = 144

Put curse in between letters and use the alt key and the left arrow at same time to scrunch letters together.

I then free handed the jig connections.  I just noticed the heart in the "0". You could freehand in or get clipart to put on top of the o.

I tried to do in Word but could not figure out how to kern letters.


The attached is at 2 inches Hand draw connectors

Thanks for the short but understandable description, I have been wondering how you people make those for a while now. I will work on the connectors, because I like them the most as shown in the pics i uploaded.

I think the Love sing must be in a book or something, since I have seen it at a couple of places. But when I know how one can make it, I dont really need it. I will try to find a tutorial if I dont find how to do it by myself.

Cheers!
