I need advice from those that know the proper place to emb on a hankie.This is for a ladys grandaughter, getting married. First, she wanted the girls' inital K. Then she said, maybe both their names Kassidy and Logan and the wedding date underneath.(when it is folded up, I don't know how all that writing would look) Finally she said what ever I thought it was suppose to be.....My daughter (used to work at a monogramming shop) said if she wants the date then just do the new last name inital with the date underneath. I haven't suggested to the lady yet. I wanted your opinions. I think she really wanted the K or Kassidys name. Also, this hankie has a lot of flowers emb on it already, it doesn't leave much room for anything folded up. Do you place the K at an angel, between the center fold and the already stitched flowers? What kind, and how much stabilizer to use? Hankie is very thin. She purchased it at bumblebeelinens.com, maybe you could see it better there. Click on Wedding hankie-click on White Embroidery- then click White tulip and Daisy hankie.$7.99- ....I am thinking either the last new intial and date or if she wants the girls intial, just that, so when it is folded it will look better. Tell me what you think,please????????????????????????? Also, I don't know what kind of font. I don't have too many for this, but she liked the Ribbon font from the mad woman of lockstreet, I just dl. She said the girl likes heirloom, but when I show the lady a filagee type K, she didn't like it.
If you can find a similar weight fabric be sure to do a practice one. I have done quite a few hankies and sometimes the small stitching has too many stitches packed in and comes out sort of "gloppy" looking.
Good luck, I'm sure it will be beautiful.
Hope it is a beautiful wedding.
Look around at the ones on the lace shop and see what you like.
