I plan on making Christmas napkins and I am practicing on some spare ones to get a feel for placement. Most I have seen have the initial or monogram in the corner. How do others feel about placement? Kay

Very pretty. I like the corner design.

Very pretty, Kay! I prefere the corner for the design/initial it looks prettier when folded but I have even seen the desogn or initial in the center. It looked okay but not as elegant as a pretty folded napkin.

I agree. after I started the first one , the rest had to match!!!

Thanks for all your lovely comments and flowers to all. Now any hints to share for Christmas napkins?

Kay a lot depends on who you are making them for. I personally prefer the corner. some people want them a little more up from the corner. It depends on how the napkin is folded I do believe & there are a lot of ways to fold napkins. Look up some dealers on the web that sell linens & see where their placements are. *

great idea!!

Great napkins Kay but as the others mentioned I would prefer the design in the corner as well. But you are very smart to do a test first and see the result.

Hopefully they won't go to waste. I often put my friends initials on things.

Thanks

I really like both of them, beautiful job! I'm a corner person so for mine the initial would be in the corner. I think it's whatever look YOU like. Carol

I even pulled out an inherited heirloom and it was a single initial in the bottom corner.

Very nice. Good job!

Thank you sweetie!

I personally like them in a corner. It's great when they are folded and the design shows so much better.

Love both of them Katy - great job.

Thanks, both of these are corner designs. One is just higher up than the other.
