A question for the men (and Cyd)

GUYS:
I've been looking for an embroidery font that is:
- large
- readable
- easy to embroider (few colors)
- medieval/tudor-looking
and
- not too girly.

Does this pass the "not too girly" test?


CYD:
What I'm thinking of is possible TW embroidery. I know you wanted something in more of a classic times roman, but all the stuff I'm finding there is either too boringly plain, too busy (the alphabet I already have), or way too floral. And occasionally all of the above and expensive to boot. There's a free Time Roman alphabet at Ann The Gran's site, but it's 6 colors per letter and has a small but undeniable flower on each letter. If we do something like this in the colors suggested - a dark red or black for the letter and a lighter green for the leaves - it should be readable enough.

The Missionary Project - I have a plan (and a timeline)

It's not necessarily a cunning plan, but it's a plan all the same.

Timeline for finishing research and turning this into a dissertation. )

Basically, I'm going to do all the research - which will be very expensive and time-consuming, especially if I have to go to Hawaii myself (which I probably shall), before I go school-shopping. And then I'm going to shop for a school which will let me design my own degree so I can focus like a laser beam on my subject - plus get a little credit for what I've already done.
