This is kind of a strange request, but I'd like someone who is a bit artistic to draw for me a small sign that I will then copy onto a bit of wood that will hang near my tomatoes. In exchange, I have a packet of heirloom tomato seeds (great white) and a packet of heirloom eggplant seeds (Rosa Bianca) (both seed packets come from Baker Creek).

If anyone is interested, please let me know. The design I'm looking for is a drawing featuring the phrase "tomato alley" and a tornado design with tomatoes and garden implements. The design should be able to be sent via pdf so I can print it out on my end.

Thanks!!

Hi Kimberly,
I can probably draw what you want if you could be a little more specific. Such as, do you want the tornado to have the tomatoes and tools in it, separate from the tornado, the word tornado between the tomatoes and tools, and which tools would you want. I like to know exactly what someone has in mind before I tackle it but I do draw and love it!

Hi Gail,
I'm wide open on the design, actually. My first thought was a twister, with tomatoes and tools swirling around and then the phrase "tomato alley" somewhere near there. Tools that came to mind were a spade, maybe a tomato cage, seed packets (?), a little hand rake, that kind of thing. I'm sure whatever you come up with would suit me just fine - the only thing is I have to be able to trace it onto the wood for the outdoor sign, so if there is a bunch of detail, that might get lost.

Let me know if you need any other details. Thank you so much!!

Do you know what size board that you are going to copy this on? Wondering if it was square, rectangle. If not that is ok......you should be able to use this any way you want by the way that you print it out.......will be in touch:)

Hi Kimberly,
I believe that I have what you want finished! I am going to go over it with an ink pen and that will help when you get ready to trace. I have some questions and I am going to send you an e-mail. Will be in touch. Farmgirl #61, Gail
