Broadway SAL - Release 4 Design Insights

We've reached the halfway point! I will admit that I felt a little bad that this one isn't Little Shop of Horrors after seeing how many people guessed that for based on the two new greens coming in from next weeks release. We did have on person guess Hamilton however!


This letter was a lot of fun to design. Of course we had a fit in a star and decided to do it large to bring it into play a little on the next letter as well. Then there were the silhouettes. I will admit that we were not sure these would work at all given how small they needed to be, but they were some of the graphics that I had the most fun on. As we have been going through the releases we have seen so many fun little changes being made and I'm excited to see what people will do with these if there is anyone who likes 3/4 stitches. As it is they were kept a little more blocky so that the pattern was more beginner friendly, but I was so pleased with how they came out.


The extra graphics on this one are fairly simple. The last of the shoes from the O are being completed and the vine is still snaking it's way across. You can see the introduction of two more greens and I think you know what that means for the upcoming D. The bubbles have, for now, disappeared, but don't worry that will be back and soon we will be getting to their source. I know some folks already have good guesses of what and where it is.


As for the lyrics we once again had a couple to consider, things like Rise Up and Not Throwing Away My Shot. But Young Scrappy and Hungry fit so well in the A we had to go with it.


The color choices were probably the simplest for this letter, as Hamilton has a very particular palette.



We have had so much fun so far on this SAL with y'all. I've loved seeing all the little changes and the guesses each week. We can't wait til you can see more of it, and we definitely can't wait to see everyone's finished projects!
