I'm looking for a font that looks like rope or stitching...It's for a project I'm working on. I'm trying to make the text look like it was sewn....so maybe a PS text action? Anyone ever seen anything like this? Maybe point me in the right direction? I would be sincerely grateful! Thanks!

Not too sure. Do you mean like the stitching on uniforms and such?

You could be able to simulate that by applying any thread-like texture, then adding a bevel, and tweaking with color and gradient overlay.

I searched a little and found this action: http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/Way/9571/actions/baseball.zip

It makes text look like it's been roughly embroidered (like on a baseball cap).

Is this something like what you're looking for? Wink

Have you checked Adobe Studio for PS actions?

I looked there. Closest match is a cross-stich action, which I don't think is what he's looking for... Wink
