Embroidery Basics: How to Embroider a Terry Cloth TowelBy Janome Maker Milinda StephensonDespite all of the fancy designs you might comb through on embroidery websites, booksor magazines, the most common embroidery created on home embroidery machines aremonogrammed towels. Why? Because they are quick, easy and inexpensive. Monogrammedtowels are practical and perfect for almost every occasion - weddings, starting college,housewarmings, birthdays, new baby, going-away, etc.If you’re new to machine embroidery or if you’ve embroidered for a dozen years, you willcertainly be embroidering towels.In this lesson, Janome Maker Milinda Stephenson will give you a step-by-step guide to whatthe industry experts suggest as the best ways to machine-embroider monograms on towels.There are a few basic methods. Before determining your method, answer the followingquestions:Question 1: Is my terry cloth towel thick or thin? If your towel is thin, your best choice is to hoop the towel. If your towel is thick, your best choice is to “float” the towel. Often, thick towels will notfit into your embroidery hoop.Question 2: Is my embroidery design simple or intricate? If your embroidery design is a one to three letter monogram, a tear-away stabilizer willwork. If your embroidery design is more complicated, for example several flowers are over alarge area, a cut-away stabilizer might be your best bet. Why? Because intricate stitchescan make your fabric shift. Cut-away stabilizer is a bit better at keeping fabric fromshifting.Here are instructions for each possibility:*For all methods, please pre-wash your towel. Otherwise, the fabric might shrink, distortingyour embroidery stitches.Method 1: Thin towel, Simple Design (one to three letter monograms)www.janome.comPage 1
