Are the initials already in the frames?

No. The centre of each frame is left as plain cloth, so the letters are added afterwards.

How do the three frames differ?

The wreath is a full round of flowers. The cartouche is an oval of scrolls and beads, worked white on white. The crest is two leafy branches tied at the bottom, with the space above them plain.

Can I type a different frame?

Yes. Type a motif as a direction, such as a heart. A typed direction is a request for a new picture, not a promised result.

Monogram embroidery designs: floral wreath, oval cartouche, laurel crest

Monogram embroidery frames — a round wreath of small roses, forget-me-nots and leaves in satin and lazy-daisy stitch on white linen, the centre left as plain unstitched cloth, the cloth laid on a pale oak table, soft daylight from camera-left, a bright balance with a gentle shadow along the cloth edge

Someone who embroiders initials on linen, towels or gifts looks first for the frame the letters will sit in. These pictures show three frames finished in thread, each with the centre left as plain cloth: a round wreath of roses and forget-me-nots, a Victorian oval cartouche of scrolls and beads worked white on white, and a laurel crest of two branches tied with a bow. Type a motif as a direction, such as a heart or gold thread.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
