Bubble outlines are thick enough to tie each dot to its stem with a narrow neck. Color the three dots in a second color and they stand apart again.
Old Dominion, the capital, the mountains and the bay
A first print puts Virginia words in bubble letters under the sheet: tap it. Old / Dominion is the nickname. Richmond is the capital and Virginia / Beach the city with the most people; Norfolk and Roanoke are cities too. Jamestown was settled in 1607, and Williamsburg became the colony's capital in 1699. The Blue Ridge mountains cross the west, and Chesapeake / Bay lies to the east.
- Shenandoah is the state's one national park and the name of a valley; Mount / Rogers is the highest point, Tidewater the coastal plain.
- Mochiy Pop One keeps both holes white as well; Chewy prints Virginia tallest of the six but fills the g and the a.
- Old / Dominion has five letters with a hole, and Fredoka leaves all five white.
Questions and answers
How do you draw Virginia in bubble letters?
Pencil the V as two fat slanted strokes that meet in a point. Add i, r, g, i, n, i, a, each i a short stem under a round dot. Outline every stroke softly, ring the g and the a, then erase.
Can I print Virginia in capital letters?
Yes. Type VIRGINIA and the sheet redraws with three capital I's, none with a dot. The R and the A each have a hole: Mochiy Pop One keeps both white, and Fredoka keeps the one in the R.
Can I print Virginia as a banner?
Yes. Open More options and pick One letter per page for eight upright sheets. Three of them are the same i, so one tracing serves all three.
