If you don’t, you can change each letter to the same thread color and JOIN THREADS to have the name sew all the same color. Again, since each letter is a different color it’ll stop in between each letter if you want to sew the name with different color threads. I will then save the name to my machine and it’s ready to sew. Here is the name after I’m done and I’ve clicked the “CENTER” button to center the name in my hoop. I did have to go back and adjust them a little to the left and right, but it didn’t take me long at all. I then clicked on step 2, the “a”, and lined it up on the middle line next to the M, then 3, 4, 5 and so on until all the letters were sitting on the line. What I did was line up the M on the middle horizontal line on my grid. If you click on the name on the left part of your screen, it will select the whole name, so you have to click on each thread color to select each letter. If you know, comment and let us all know!Īs you can see here I clicked on thread color 1 on the thread chart which shows me my “M”. There may be another way to do this, but I’m not sure what it is. It’s a little tricky since when you select a letter it only shows you that letter to move, but I was able to line the letters all up on the middle line pretty easily. If you click on each thread color, you can then move the letter around. If you look at the thread chart on the right you can see all 7 letters are a different color and a different step. So I’m going to save this on my computer in a folder where I can find it in a minute to edit in SWP.

Normally in MWP your name or initials are all the same color UNLESS you layer. As you can see it’s all crazy! But, when you put the ^ in between each letter, it makes each letter a different thread color. Here is my name with the ^’s in between each letter and this is Specs font. First you will save it this way (there are more pictures below) and then you would bring it up in SWP to edit.

Anyway, you can use this trick to rearrange the letters IF you have Sew What Pro or other editing software. I LOVE Specs and it’s great for monograms (3 letter monograms). Another instance where this comes in handy is 2) You’re using “Specs” font (MWP) and if you have Specs, you know it is spaced all crazy so your name may or may not line up the way you want it too. here is a neat trick! Between each letter, type in the “^” symbol, which is located on your 6 key. You could also manually stop your machine as it’s sewing in between each letter and change your thread color (if you are using a single needle machine). You can do one of a few things ~ if it’s a name with 5 letters or less, you can do it in layers in MWP.

1) You’re doing a name in Monogram Wizard Plus and you or your customer wants each letter a different color thread.

This is great in 2 instances that I can think of off the top of my head. As promised, I have another trick I learned on the Monogram Wizard Plus Facebook Page.
