    I have been racking my brain after watching other videos that made me use boxes to separate the monograms that come in sets of 3. Using this font with the letters already in right, center, and left is SO much easier!!! Thanks

    • @CherylSpangenberg
      @CherylSpangenberg  Před 3 lety

      The fonts with the separate letters are life! If you do have to use on where all three are the same letter, you can use the contour tool to remove them from the spots you don't want them really easily! I will work on a contour video!

    I wish circuit would make it a little easier to make monograms. It seems like there are so many steps just to make a monogram. It’s just way too cumbersome and too many steps to make it.

    Thank you! I want to do a monogram for the back window of my SUV. Approximately how large should my letters be?

      I Think about 2 feet tall and wide.
