FREEHAND MONOGRAMMING
For giving garments and linens a per
sonalized touch, first transfer the design
to the right side of the fabric. An
embroidery hoop is recommended es
pecially for soft fabrics and toweling.
In order to monogram, you must move
the fabric slowly and run the machine
rapidly. Monogramming is like writing by
moving the paper under a stationary pen.
Guide the fabric slowly so that the zigzag
falls close together like a satin stitch, but
be careful that the stitches do not pile up.
When guiding from side to side, move
fabric slightly faster to avoid a heavy
pile up of thread.
Practice by forming loops. Once this is
accomplished any letter is easy.
Sometimes the use of paper or non-woven
interfacing under the fabric may make
guiding the fabric easier. The paper or
interfacing may be torn or cut away at
the completion of the monogram.When
monogramming towels, plastic film plac
ed on the top will help cover loops and
make the monogram smooth. Pull or cut
away remaining plastic film when finish
ed.
APPLIQUE/PATCHING
Applying decorative shapes of fabric
scraps to household articles and clothing
is a very interesting way of trimming an
otherwise plain article. First, trace the
design on fabric to be appliqued or
patched,then pin or baste it securely in
place on garment. With a small straight
stitch or narrow zigzag, sew around the
transferred design or patch.
After excess fabric is trimmed away, sew
around the applique or patch with a satin
stitch or short length zigzag stitch. For a
smooth curve, stop frequently at the
inside edge of the curve to pivot the
fabric slightly. Corners look much better
when the point is stitched by pivoting
rather than just turned.
As with all decorative stitches, paper may
be used to give more body to the fabric
when stitching and can be torn away
when the applique is completed.
