Directions for Fancy Monogrammed Baby Bib Project / September 2001 (This project features letters from our Victorian Monogram Set 6) Step 1. Print instructions. These are
.pdf files, and require Adobe Acrobat Reader software in order to view
and print. (The references in these instructions to Figure 1, etc
are to illustrations that are part of the .pdf version) Step 2. Review instructions and materials required (materials list at the end of these instructions). Step 3 . Purchase pre-digitized corner designs The companion designs for this project are corner brackets in six different styles. The brackets have been laid out at the corners of a rectangle. The set includes the six design styles in rectangular layout in two sizes: 2 1/2" (62 mm) x 3 1/2" (88mm), and 2" (51mm) x 2 3/4" (70mm). Each product also contains a .txt file that can be read or printed, called "Notes". This file contains information about the number of stitches in the design, the sewing sequence of the various parts of the design, and suggested thread colors. The Product files are available in 7 different formats.
From our website, the designs will be received as a self-extracting zip file (.exe), with the following product numbers:
Each set contains the following designs:
Step 4. . Merge a letter from the Monogram Set of your choice with Corner design. Combine the Corner design of your choice with the letter of your choice, then save the new combination design under a filename of your choice. We used a letter (S) from the Victorian Monogram Set 6. We chose the smaller of the two availible sizes, and merged it with the Flowers corner design (Corner 6) in the larger of the two available sizes. You can create your own unique version of this project by choosing a different set of Corner designs. Step 5.Hoop the bib, and embroider the design. We hooped the bib along with one layer of medium-weight tear-away backing. This backing gave good stability, and was easy to remove after the design was finished. Congratulations! Your project is complete. Materials |
