My Lettering Hack

With embroidery I always struggled with lettering, and I'm not a big fan of tracing paper or iron-on lettering. So over the last year I've learned a little hack that allows me to letter almost anything in any style I want. First I print out my lettering on bond paper in the font size I want, and then cut it up and arrange it on the project to see where I want each word.

I then use a razor knife to turn the printouts into stencils.

Once the stencils are cut out, I pin them to the project and use a disappearing marker to trace the letters I'll be embroidering.

As you can see the results are pretty nice.
