No problem. I have never done fur before but that seems like the most logical way how to do it. Please use test material before sewing on the real thing and let me know how it works out. (Or if you use a different way.)

It looks OK in my sent folder but weird on the message board. Try using a sharp needle with 2 layers of tearaway and solvy topping. Also use a double zig-zag underlay. If the letters are taller than 2" then use a fill stitch instead of a satin stitch. I hope this goes through OK this time.

Would you do the first layer fill and the second layer satin?

And is it just lettering or a design.

This is a double layer at the top of a Christmas stocking. I have the slimline clamps. I have sample fabrics to test on.
