Monogram Placement




TOWELS- Always place the monogram at the opposite end of the label. Measurements are from the bottom of the monogram.

WASHCLOTHS- 1 ½” above the hem or 1” above the border.

HAND TOWELS- 2” above hem or 1 ½” above border.

BATH TOWELS- 4” above hem or 2” above border.

BATH SHEETS- 4” above hem or 3” above border.

SHEETS- The bottom of the monogram should be centered about 2” above the wide hem line on the top side of the sheet.

SHIRT CUFFS- To place the monogram in the top center of the wrist, start 1” from the center of the cuff toward the buttonhole and ¼” to ½” above the cuff edge. The bottom of the letters should fall at the bottom of the cuff.

TIES- Place 2” to 1 ½” up from the bottom tip of 9” to 11” up from the bottom tip when worn with a vest.

GOLF SHIRTS,ETC.- Place 7 ½” to 9” down from the left shoulder seam and 4” to 6” over from the center.

LADIES SWEATERS – Place 3 ½” to 4 ½” down from the collar and centered on the front.

SWEATSHIRTS- Place 3” to 3 ½” down from the bottom of the crew neck edge.

LADIES ROBES- Place 4” to 6” down from the left shoulder seam and 3” to 5” over from the center.
