A reader’s guide to lettering

Script

Flowing and romantic. Best for names on towels, robes and wedding gifts. Needs at least 3 cm of height to stay crisp.

Classic serif

The newspaper look: calm, clear capitals and lower case. Safe for shirts, uniforms and anything formal.

Monogram

Three initials, surname in the middle and larger, framed in a ring. Traditional on cuffs, handkerchiefs and linen.

Varsity

Bold collegiate letters for caps, team kits and graduation gifts. Looks best in two colours.

Spaced capitals

Modern, minimal, widely spaced. Elegant on dark robes and caps in metallic thread.

Thread notes

Our everyday thread is rayon: bright, smooth and with a soft sheen. Metallic gold and silver use a polyester core wrapped in foil; they cost ₦800 more and shine beautifully in evening light. For towels we stitch on a water-soluble topping so letters sit on top of the loops instead of sinking in.

Colours on screens vary. Ask us to send a photo of the actual thread against your fabric before we start.

Questions from readers

How close is the preview to the real thing?

Very close for size and style. Thread looks a little richer in person, and script letters are slightly bolder so they stitch cleanly.

Can you use my own font or handwriting?

Yes. Send a clear photo; we digitise it for ₦5,000, once, and keep it on file.

Do you check spelling?

We read every name back to you on WhatsApp before stitching, and ask you to reply with a yes.
