MFC Budding Monogram Guidebook
The inspiration source for Budding Monogram is a unique embroidery alphabet from the early 1900’s. The original design was a Capitals
only letterset adorned with a budding flower. We have expanded that character set to include both floral adorned Capitals and bare
Capitals, along with a set of smallcaps to for creating traditional monograms.
Budding Monogram is capable of adorned and bare traditional monogram forms utilizing the Stylistic Alternates features.
