A monogram is a design that is made up of two or more interlaced initials. If we are monogramming a single letter, we will usually choose the first letter of our first or last name. For three letters, then the first letter of the first, last and middle name are used. For married couples, the center letter will be the first letter of their last name with the initial of their first name on the left and right side.
After selecting the letters, you can then select the style. You can choose all the letters to be the same size or you can make the middle letter slightly larger than the letters on the left and right.
Why do we use monograms?
Monograms make it easy to add a personal touch to the gift you are giving. It makes the linen or purse feel unique. The recipient will feel that you have gone the extra mile to prepare the gift.

How to choose your monogram color
For items like pillowcase and bed sheet, it is recommended to choose a thread color that matches the color of the item that you are going to monogram.
If you want the initial to be in more striking color, then it is best to use white background. It works best for bathrobes and towels.
Neutral colors work well when paired with other neutral colors and these methods are great for towel and sheet sets.
