Automated excerpt

On the back of the shirt I wanted a llama using a single 24v 1200mm long red filament. For the front of the shirt, I wanted cursive neon text with a Vegas-inspired border. Just like my original test, I taped the tissue paper to the shirt, taped some cross-stitch fabric to the inside of the shirt, and then started sewing the filament in place. The cursive text on the front of the shirt is where things really got interesting.
