Alternately, the right edge of the design can be 2 inches from the side seam, at the crotch lever.

Encircle cuff or go partway up the outside seam.

Usually only done on one leg. But may be done on both legs

if desired. Use the same design on a coordinating shirt.

Find center of armholes, from armpit to shoulder, and draw

line straight across. If you place this line too low, the

design may go across a woman's breast area.

As an alternative, you can draw a horizontal line at the level of the second button or

snap.

On a V-neck shirt, you can draw a horizontal line even with the bottom of the V.

Center of design should go where the lines intersect. Place designs along the hemline, with bottom of the design ? to 1 inch above the

hemmed edge.

Print out designs before embroidering, and place them around the skirt to figure out

equal distances between designs. Use a similar

distance between bottom of design and edge of fabric, to make placement appear nore

logical. If distance between design is greater than 3-4 inches, then it won't look very good to have the designs that far above the edge of the hem, so forget this idea, and just put them ? to 1 inch

above hemline.
