The flowing swirls of this classic monogram style are done in satin stitch with ample underlay to create a rounded look. The letters in this single-initial monogram style are framed by an arc on either side, done in two colors. Within the satin stitch border are areas of seed stitch, which add a luxurious texture as a counterpoint to the satin stitching. The letters can be used without the border by stopping your machine after the first color, or deleting the brackets in your embroidery software program.
This two-color script style is influenced by designs produced on old zig-zag stitch monogramming machines. The shadowed effect can be created with either color as the lighter highlight, or for a simpler look sew only the first color. The mirrored brackets are an option, and can be added for decorative effect.
This monogram style is digitized from 1940s artwork. The large letters are done as outlines in satin stitch with open centers between border elements, and each letter sits in the center with a two color rectangular satin stitch frame surrounding it. The smaller letters are simpler in style, and are intended for use in creating a three letter monogram by merging the appropriate letter on the left and right.
In addition to the three-letter combination shown, there are a multitude of possibilities: Want a single initial with frame? (use only the large letter) Want everything as a single color? (use the same thread for all three design colors). Want only the larger open letter without the frame? (skip color 1 and color 2 on your machine.) Want the larger open letter with flanking letters, but no frame? (merge the flanking letters on either side, then delete colors 1 and 2 in your software). You get the idea - simple manipulations create very different visual results.
We're not exactly sure of the age of the artwork used to digitize this monogram set - but it feels like late 1940s - early 1950s. It has a post WW II quality, after the troops returned from the war in the Pacific. Polynesian crossed with summer Boy Scout camp. The satin stitch letters are framed by long, rounded columns with open ring accents on either side. As is typical of many of our styles, the letters can be used alone.
