If you don't want a 'box' fill but just extra fill under the
lettering, you can have a 'secondary' fill underneath it-choose that
in your lettering window....or duplicate the lettering, convert to
vector, and now you have the 'outline' to put in a regular fill
pattern-but change the density to 30, 40, whatever you need. Change
the 'angle' of stitches to 45 or so, then move this 'copy' above the
lettering in the listing-so it sews down first. Add a color change-
then make this fill as close as possible to the same color of the
blanket-using the best match thread. Less chance of it showing up
underneath or peeking out from an edge. On your lettering, add some
pull comp-and when you view it in 3-D you shouldn't see this new
'fill' underneath at all.
Works for me if I don't want to make a 'box' around the whole area of
type. Works great for holding down the fur on christmas stockings.
