I can't get enough of the stitch/ribbon, no matter how cliche it gets. So I've tried to add some unique flair to make the navigation stand out a little more, going on with some minor style updates to the blog.
@Michal Pechardo Thanks! I'll be posting the other ones just for reference in a rebound.
@Josh Austin Thanks :-)
@Stefan Hartwig Thanks! Glad to see some talent from Good 'ol SD, going up there to visit family soon
Maybe only have the stitches where the ribbon is flat against the page? So it looks like its stitched down there and just flopping freely where it bends up. Just throwing it out there :)
I'll never stop using ribbons, I don't care how cliche they get. This is for a secret, awesome project to be launched soon. I'm really excited about it.
Not sure how to handle the kerning when it's on a path, guess I could just do it by hand.

Looks really sharp!! ... How about aligning the logo with the navigation text? Right now it seems like it's pinned to one corner and out of flow.
