Monogrammed Tote

Monogrammed tote

     A client brought me a tote she had purchased at Target and wanted a monogram on the pocket.  She wanted it to be as large as possible.  There were several obstacles though.

Hooped tote

     In order to hoop the bag to get it on the machine, only a 4 x 4 hoop would fit tin the front pocket.  If we chose the put the monogram on the back of the tote, it could be larger but then it would close up the inside zippered pocket.  The last option would be to take the tote apart at the top and do the monogram and sew it back up, not usually a good idea.

Monogram detail

     The client opted for a smaller monogram on the front pocket.  She chose this one from Designs by JuJu.  It is normally an applique but she didn't want any fabric in there.  I think it turned out pretty cool, a monogram that looks like a unique design.
