Machine Embroidery Design FormatsAll designs come as a zip archive file that when unzipped or extracted contain the following embroidery file formats:
DST, EXP, HUS, JEF, PES, SHV, VIP, VP3 and XXX.
There will also be an "Instructions" folder that contains a PDF file that has step by step instructions with many photos to help with your embroidery design.
This design is for 7×11 and larger hoops only.
This in the hoop project can be completed in either one or two hoopings with only a small amount of machine or hand stitching required. If you wish to make the pillow with a Velcro closure in the back, as shown in the photo, it will require two hoopings. Stitch files for an ITH Velcro closure as well as an ITH pillow insert are part of your download. You can also make a simpler version that gets closed at the bottom and is a one hooping project.
The background of the center of the pillow is motif quilted and the side borders are attached during the embroidery process. Ricrac is also part of the embroidery. There is a place for personalization of the pillow. You will also receive the pillow with the design centered, without the extra line for the name insertion. In all, you are getting 4 stitch files (Velcro closure; front with design with and without name insertion possibility.) The font used for “Saarah” is our ¾” Carabelle font. Our ¾” Twinkle Star would also work very well for this little pillow. No font included.
Finished size of pillow: 6.5×10″
