MONOGRAMS AND MOTIFS
Many decorative stitch patterns can be used
for moncgrams and motifs — to add a personal
touch to a blouse collar, for example, or for
initialing household linens. You can buy de
signs or create them yourself to suit the stitch
pattern you wish to use.
Very simple straight-Fme monograms can be
made with the plain zig-zag stitch, or you can
create a motif by arranging individual pattern
units to form a design. (Detailed information
on zig-zag stitch patterns and dial settings
begins on page 25.)
When you use a decorative stitch pattern to
form a motif, you will want to start at the
beginning of the pyramid, ball, or whatever
pattern you have selected.
