I didn't start out making fonts. When I opened my shop in  2017, I sold embroidered baby quilts, personalized with names. I bought the  fonts and designs I used — and nearly every one of them stitched letter by  letter. Start, stop, trim. Start, stop, trim. For every single letter.

I knew there was a better way: native BX fonts, which stitch  from one letter to the next along the nearest connecting points. The problem  was that I could hardly find any for sale. So I started digitizing my own.

The first time it worked, I was stitching a name on a baby  quilt with a little script font I'd made. The whole name stitched all the way  through without stopping once. No thread breaks, no jams — my machine just  hummed along.

That was what I'd been looking for. It's what I've been  making ever since.

Why native BX makes a difference

Many fonts sold as "BX" are really stitch files  wrapped up to type in Embrilliance. They work — until you need a different size  or fabric. Native BX fonts are digitized directly in Embrilliance, so the  software builds the stitches fresh every time you type.

• Fewer stops and trims.
  Letters connect as they stitch, so names run through smoothly instead of jumping and trimming between every letter.
• Resize without the mess.
  Go bigger or smaller and the stitches recalculate for the new size — no bloated, overstitched letters.
• You're in control.
  Adjust density and underlay to suit your fabric, from towels to fine cotton.
