MONOGRAMS AND MOTIFS

Any of the many stitch patterns are perfect

for monograms and motifs.

Select a

design

from the many transfer pat

terns available or sketch one to suit your purpose.

Some fabrics may require a backing of lawn

or organdy.

Position the design on the right side of the

material. Trim backing away when stitching is
completed, if necessary.

To reproduce a specific portion of a stitch pat

tern, first stitch on a scrap of material until the

desired point in the design is reached.

Remove the material from under the presser

foot. Now position motif or monogram under the

needle. Lower presser foot and stitch.

This procedure is recommended for all precise

design placement. Leaves, and flower petals,

for example, are created in this way.
