Monogram: HOS

These swirly three initials from Arabesque Monogram Set 15 - H (first initial) on the left, O (middle initial) on the right, and S (last initial) in the center - are partially overlapped and pushed together. To give them a "base" embellishment we chose Design 5 from Monogram Flourishes 4.

The overall size is 5 1/8" (129mm) tall by 7 3/4" (197mm) wide.

How we made these monograms

Embroidery software programs make it easy to delete elements, copy and paste elements from other designs, resize different aspects, and merge elements together into one new design. Each program is a bit different in how the Edit functions are managed. Once you have learned to use yours, creating new monograms from other monogram parts is creative and fun. Experiment with different arrangements and colors.
