Working with Creative Lettering 

Lettering is one of the easiest ways to develop a recognisable style for your business. A simple name on a baby blanket can become part of a signature look when you use a curated selection of fonts and colours that work well together. Choosing a small group of typefaces helps create consistency and makes your brand feel more intentional.  

 

Many high-quality embroidery fonts are available to purchase online, and once added to your library they can be used again and again. Selecting fonts that suit your niche, whether that’s soft, classic styles for baby gifts or clean, modern lettering for homewares, will help set the tone of your range.
