Yes probably but not sure how big they may be...bought a second hand brother this year still don't know what's on it as yet...one day I will look....

Glad to hear you settled on your lettering...looking forward to seeing all those towels posted in Projects...

I have to wait till I have more down load to up load my photo if that makes sense....

I find that the satin fonts that have the best underlay works best for me on towels. Of course, it is hard to know if the font has underlay until after you buy it. Jolsons and Apex fonts do have great underlay, and I love my Embird fonts. (Keep saying to your self: I am woman! I am strong! I can do anything! Your daughter already knows this.)

gotta laugh at that.....
Got two kids towels to do. Been told I could put a cowboy hat on theirs....so now to look for a hat as well...
thanks for commenting...

This is the correct place to ask a question about embroidery. I do hope you will post your embroidered towels in the Projects section so we can admire them. You are a wonderful Mum to do this for your daughter.

Yes I will post when I finish, a couple of the face washers were not the best as I made the name too small. Darn.....
Cannot unpick on a towel with tiny stitches....Luckily I know the person well, and she will forgive me...was thinking I may even go over it in an applique design...see what happens...Love Kerry

There are literally hundreds of fonts out there - I know because it is my weakness. Try Jolsons. I have just had a look and it seems as if their fonts are .95 cents only at the moment. I am going to have a look through and if I find one or two that I have and have used I will let you know the name.

Just had a look in my files and I have 3 Jolsons which I use a huge amount. They are Barbie, Bonobo and Satin Script. Hope this will help

Pleasure and thank you for coming back to us.

The one I use is from PE Design prog. Font 30. Click on my name and look at some of my projects and you will see the font I use most.

Ok thank you. Yes my friend Ros says she also uses one in PE Design...I have Embird but I found the fonts were too thin in width for a towel...and I only own one purchase Embird font so far...hugs Kerry

Hope you find the perfect font your looking for, good luck on the towels

thank you yes. made up one with different letters form a couple...

Hi Kerry, I love the GOLD FONT from on here at Cute Embroidery. Go to the DESIGNS tab, click on the letter A on the left hand side of the page, then over on the right hand side of the page ALPHABETS is listed first. Go down about 8 letters and you will see GOLD FONT click on that wording and it opens up the whole page of the letters. Love Chris

Where there is FAITH it can be done! I've never done what you are endeavoring to do, I know your daughter's faith in you isn't misplaced. If you have forgotten all mothers by whatever name are miracle workers... Hope you obtain some help. hugs

I know. I am feeling a little miffed at the moment. When I finish all I will be very happy....I don't do things to sell, usually to give away or for family...so when this came along, I was like Wooooo, Now to do it....have a lovely day Leah.
