Puffy Letters with Puffy Foam Embroidery
Puffy Letters with Puffy Foam Sulky Puffy Foam allows you to create dimensional embroideries that “pop” off the surface for great readability and emphasis. Available in 2mm and 3mm thicknesses, Puffy Foam comes in all colors of the rainbow so you can choose a complimetary thread color for minimal show-through.

Choose a linen fabric for this to elevate the gift and make it super comfy to wear. A medium- to heavyweight linen fabric is best to support the embroidery stitching and last through multiple washings and wearings. Linen is typically a rather open-weave fabric, so the right…
