How to Make a Needlepoint Monogram

April 12, 2021 by Claudia Porter 1 Comment

Do you remember back in the 1980s when everywhere you looked you would see a monogrammed sweater?  I know I do which tells you that I am older than I would like to be.  There were so many different ways that the monograms were done.  This article from Nuts about Needlepoint explains the process so you can make your own monogram.

One thing I found fascinating about the article is that there are some standard methods for monogramming that are different for men and women.  Who knew?

You will find all sorts of tips and hints for making a successful needlepoint monogram.  There is also a link to a post that has various fonts that you can use.

Wouldn’t a monogram needlepoint project be a nice gift for a bride?  You could even make a small project for a new baby’s room.  The possibilities are endless.

You can find the article on making a custom needlepoint monogram here: Making a Custom Needlepoint
