Good job! I have some of the foam but haven't tried it yet. Are there designs special for using foam?

Wrong comment! (not enough coffee yet!) I have 6d embroidery extra and these fonts were included. Although this is not one of the "puffy fonts" included I was playing around to see what it would look like. lol

Looks nice, but...So, not to be dense here, but is there a fill stitch over the puffy foam or is the background purple actually the puffy foam with the line stitching over it? I really can't tell from the picture...

U am very new to this puffy foam. I was making it up as I go. Yes that is actually the foam underneath with a stitch through it. A real puffy foam stitch is done with a large satin stitch covering the foam. I just wanted to be different. Lol

...and you were...there are no rules!! Just wanted to make sure I understood your process...it looks great...let us know how it launders, etc...without any stitching...also did you use the standard craft foam or the foam made for embroidery? I am curious about the difference..

I love that font and how you can add your own fill to it. I used it with a contour fill and a stipple but your lines are cute!
I only saw puffy foam used under satin stitch so it just raises the design/letter but is invisible. This looks pretty!
