Applique Porch Sign


We had some new renters take over our Lynn Street house and they were a very sweet little family. I had picked up this frame at Joanne's for $5 and already had some white canvas and scrap fabric laying around. I wanted to practice my applique skills so I took the opportunity. The applique was fairly easy although I should have chosen a larger font. The hardest part was cutting and mounting the canvas so that it stayed straight in the frame - as you can see I never did get it quite right.
Total cost - $5
Time - ~45 minutes
