I was asked would I embroider two handkerchiefs for a bride to give to her parents. This is the result. A short while ago I asked about buying good quality handkerchiefs in the UK. I was eventually able to track some 'quality' ones when I was away 10 days ago

Nice clear crisp small lettering. Wondering what kind of software any of you use for lettering and to edit etc. I know to use 60 wt. thread but still trying to figure out density etc. Wonderful project!

The design was produced on my PE8 softwear and I made the names larger than the rest of the writing. I used my everyday thread. Used loads of spray starch and backing and crossed my fingers...

Lovely, what font did you use and what size...

I produced the piece using my PE8 and tried out Edwardian font which didn't work then I used the font Papyrus. I now remember as I loaded up my PE design that my card reader is not working on my laptop and I need to urgenty get it sorted tomorrow. The names were in a larger 7.5 I think and the rest of the wording at a 5.
