This is a tutorial of TrueType lettering tool (with column stitch) in professional embroidery software proel.

Description of True Type Lettering:

This tool provides full freedom in the implementation of the lettering, as it allows you to punch any true type font and create your own personal database of embroidered fonts. The tool is designed primarily to meet the needs of professional embroiderers, and therefore makes available, in addition to the automatic font creation, the tools for the correction and customization of the sequence of stitches.

With this convenient tool it is not necessary to calculate all the alphabet: the single letters are gradually added to the font database as they are used. Changes made to a font are permanent and the normal size lettering is managed separately from the small size one.

The result is striking: the resulting fonts are always perfect and really compete with those manually punched. Request a demo of this great product and see by yourself!

I bought a sewing machine and this is the first thing I did with it. I am a guy and I think I did okay for a first ever attempt. I wore that shirt many times and when I told people I did it myself they did not believe me. The Chinese characters say JIA NA DA REN. Together they mean CANADIAN. The three characters on the top are JIA NA DA and they "sound like" and mean CANADA. The character on the bottom is REN and it means person. So you get CANADA PERSON meaning CANADIAN. The border is also done with a close zigzag and its purpose was to cover and hide the edge of the beige fabric. I did the much longer zigzag inside the outer edge zigzag just for extra decoration and experimentation and creativity. I embroidered the characters onto the beige piece to make it easier to do and then I sewed the beige piece to the shirt.
The next time I will do the embroidery right on the t-shirt. Since it was my first time ever I did not know how it would turn out and I did not want to waste a shirt. If you do it directly onto the shirt you may need some fabric on the inside so that the tee shirt material won't wrinkle around the sewing.

Also see my videos about bedbugs, silica gel cat litter and insecticides. I also made some videos about how to get more views for your Youtube videos. See also my channel Jackcarpentersax.
