Directions for Monogrammed Guest Towels Project / February 2001 (This project utilizes letters from our Arabesque Monogram Set 4. Step 1. Print the instructions. These are .pdf files, and
require Adobe Acrobat Reader software in order to view and print. Step 2. Review instructions and materials required (materials list at the end of these instructions). Step 3. Purchase Accent Designs This project set includes 3 variations of border accents, as follows: Towel01 - a one-color
decorative interlocking tulip design. The design is duplicated twice. Towel02 - a one-color
decorative design consisting of a small branch and leaves. The design
is repeated four times, with alternating top and bottom orientation. Towel03 - a one-color
decorative ribbon and flower design. Step 4. . Merge Designs Choose the accent that you wish to work with, and merge it with a letter or letters of your choice. (Note: in our illustration we have used the Towel01 accent design, along with the letter B (large size) from the Arabesque Monogram Set 4. We have used the accent design only once. You can easily create longer borders by repeating this design several times. Depending on the size of your hoop, multiples of the accent design can be merged within your software, or sewn out individually by aligning the designs on a center line drawn with an air soluble marker) Step 5. Embroider the letter and accent Hoop a sheet of stabilizer along with the top fabric, and carefully position the hoop so that the letter chosen will sew in the center of the guest towel. We have positioned the design so that the bottom edge of the border accent is 2" (50mm) from the bottom edge of the towel hem. Congratulations! Your project is complete. Sources
