Borders - Hard Border
Arabesque 6 - $39.95
Hot Iron Transfer Patterns were first made in 1879, and continued to be popular with hand embroiderers until the mid-1950s. A vast array of subject matter was covered, and the artwork was designed to be transferred as line art to fabric. These monogram designs were available in the 1930s. We have digitized separate colors for each portion of the design, but this would also looks stunning done white-on-white for a wedding gift. The letters are raised satin stitch, and the display border with decorative bow is done in satin stitch, accented with French knots. ››Detailed Info ››Catalog Page ››Compare Styles Borders - Hard Border

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 Borders - Hard Border
Royal - $39.95
Inspired by the great typography designer J. M. Bergling (1866-1933) this fluid satin stitch nonogram style can be used with or without the brackets that complete the circular motif.

Triangle 2 - $39.95
Taken from artwork from a 1933 French publication for professional embroiders, this versatile triangle style includes everything needed to create many variations for two-letter monograms. There are left and right side versions of the alphabet, which can be used alone or in combination with the triangular border. There are also left and right versions of two styles of corner brackets. These satin stitch designs can be used on anything, but are particularly useful for on-point napkin monograms. |
