Embroidery Fonts

An embroidery font is not a computer font: each letter is a digitized stitch file carrying stitch data, not a scalable outline. That is why format and size matter more here than anywhere else in embroidery, and why this collection handles both for you. Fonts are supplied in multiple machine formats, ART, DST, EXP, HUS, JEF, PES, VIP, VP3 and XXX, with BX included so Embrilliance users can simply type words on screen instead of merging letters one by one.

Sizing advice worth heeding: stitch a font at the sizes included rather than resizing aggressively, because scaling a stitch file distorts its density. And save ornate scripts for larger lettering; below about half an inch, elaborate letterforms bunch, which is exactly what the quarter inch and small fonts are engineered to avoid.

The range runs from playful alphabets for kids' projects to elegant cursive styles, with applique lettering for big fabric-filled names. Every font is professionally digitized so stitches come out clean and precise, includes multiple sizes, and downloads instantly.

Names, dates, monograms, and the occasional strong opinion on a tea towel: it all starts with the right alphabet.
