Art Deco 4 - $39.95
A three-letter monogram in this style can be composed as a square or a diagonal arrangement - or align smaller size letters with a larger size letter flipped on its side. The fill is satin stitch, split into two sections with mitered corners, and with a thin satin stitch border. This three-color design can be simplified by sewing the letters with only one or two thread colors. This monogram style has a masculine quality. ››Detailed Info ››Catalog Page ››Compare Styles Shapes - Angular
Art Deco 5 - $39.95
This is a crisp and simple style from the 1940s. A combination of three letters, plus companion borders will create a square monogram. This style looks great on linens and towels, and can also be used for fashion sewing on a scarf or for an eye-catching embellishment on a jacket. While a standard monogram traditionally shows the last name initial as the largest, this style is designed to have that initial placed on the right. ››Detailed Info ››Catalog Page ››Compare Styles Shapes - Angular
Art Deco 7 - $39.95
Digitized from artwork produced in Germany in 1929, when stylish display typefaces were the seals of modernity. This monogram style is digitized for appliqué, with a running stitch for position, and a light density zig-zag stitch for tack-down. These two elements are covered by satin stitch columns. This style is equally striking in one color without the appliqué. ››Detailed Info ››Catalog Page ››Compare Styles Shapes - Angular
Diamond 1 - $39.95

Diamond 2 - $39.95
This is another French monogram style, this time from 1923. It has delicate satin stitch details, and would look great on linens, handkerchiefs, etc. The left side letters (A-Z) are one color. The right side letters (A-Z) are four colors - each letter includes a three color flower accent. This style would look equally elegant if sewn tone-on-tone, all one color. The letters are designed to be merged in left and right versions to create a diamond from the letters that you choose. ››Detailed Info ››Catalog Page ››Compare Styles Shapes - Angular
Diamond 3 - $39.95
This monogram style is from the 1930s. The background is an overlapping mesh, surrounded by a satin stitch border with a bean stitch highlight. The satin stitch monogram letter is flanked by two circular embellishments. The letters are digitized for appliqué, so a contrasting colored fabric can be laid under the mesh, or the design can be sewn as cutwork utilizing water-soluble stabilizer. Although digitized with 5 colors, this looks wonderfully subtle if sewn all in white. ››Detailed Info ››Catalog Page ››Compare Styles Shapes - Angular
Diamond 4 - $39.95
In the 1930s and 40s, department stores like Woolworths sold iron-on transfer patterns for a wide variety or subject matter, including monogramming. The patterns could be transferred to fabric with a hot iron, and the pattern then used for hand embroidery. This style is based on one of those patterns. In addition to creating a three-letter diamond monogram, the smaller left and right flanking letters can be used together to create a two-letter diamond shape. ››Detailed Info ››Catalog Page ››Compare Styles Shapes - Angular
Diamond 5 - $39.95
A three-letter diamond monogram is one of the all-time classic styles. This one is based on a vintage 1940s iron-on transfer pattern - sold in department stores for 15 cents. The appropriate left, middle, and right initials are combined within your embroidery software program, along with four corner brackets, to create your own timeless monogram. ››Detailed Info ››Catalog Page ››Compare Styles Shapes - Angular

Gothic 6 - $39.95

There is a very delicate vine and leaf pattern in the background, composed of thin satin stitches and bean stitches, along with two-color satin stitch flowers. The letters are a serif block style, done in satin stitch fill with a thin outline detail. The overall motif creates a square. The letters can be used alone if you wish by skipping past the background. This is a five color design, but it looks equally special sewn in all one color. ››Detailed Info ››Catalog Page ››Compare Styles Shapes - Angular

Moderne 3 - $39.95
Digitized from artwork from the mid-1920s, this streamlined style is associated with crisp modern design - a similar version appeared on notecards in the 1939 film drama "Dark Victory". Done in satin stitch, we have split the wide column into two, which makes it easy to enlarge the letters in your embroidery software program for really large monograms on towels and shower curtains. Don't want two colors? Sew both with the same thread color. ››Detailed Info ››Catalog Page ››Compare Styles Shapes - Angular
Petite 3 - $39.95
These miniature Diamond and Circle monograms are specifically digitized to sew well at small sizes. They can be used with or without the borders, and to facilitate perfect combinations of the letters with your embroidery software program, each style comes with a placement outline template design.

Romanesque XL Appliqué 7 - $39.95
A bigger version of our popular Romanesque Monogram Set 7 - for those with larger hoops. The large letters have also been redigitized for appliqué. In addition to the full three-letter combination, you can delete the two color border in your software (or skip these colors on your machine) and sew out a three-letter monogram without border. Or you can use the letter alone (with or without the rectangular border), etc. etc. A few words about appliqué: If you haven't attempted an appliqué design the procedure can be fun, and challenging. We've seen appliqué designs with simple oversized shapes that a child could cut out and execute - this isn't one of those. It requires some dexterity and concentration to produce a professional result. This style is digitized following standard appliqué procedure: Color 1 is a running stitch, which establishes the letter outline. Color 2 is a light density zig-zag stitch which stabilizes the cut fabric edges. These two elements are covered up beneath a satin stitch border. If you're not up to the challenge you can use this style anyway - just let these first two colors run as digitized, but don't add any appliqué fabric. ››Detailed Info ››Catalog Page ››Compare Styles Shapes - Angular
Rustic 2 - $39.95
This "Old English" monogram style also has some distinctly American roots. In 1939, Big Band leader Harry James discovered a kid named Frank Sinatra waiting tables and singing at a small restaurant and supper club just outside New York City on Route 9-W in Englewood Cliffs, NJ. The club was The Rustic Cabin and this style was used on the menu cover. ››Detailed Info ››Catalog Page ››Compare Styles Shapes - Angular
Triangle 1 - $39.95
Taken from artwork from the 1930s, this is a classic three-letter triangle monogram style - the type that would have been found on fine linens or the linings of luxurious fur coats.

There is a separate design for the two corner details, and a running stitch triangle outline to help with prefect placement of the parts. The letters and corner details are digitized in statin stitch with plenty of underlay for a traditional rounded appearance. The letters can be used without the corner details if you wish. ››Detailed Info ››Catalog Page ››Compare Styles Shapes - Angular
Triangle 2 - $39.95
