Needlepoint Belt Monogram Ideas

Looking for different ideas for monograms on your custom needlepoint belt?  I’ve seen a lot of great ones, so I’m going to go over some of my favorites.

Typically we design a monogram with First Middle Last initials.  Or if you prefer to have the last name in the middle, then the first and middle initials will be on the sides and smaller than the last name initial.  With these letters, we most often use a Times New Roman typeface that is more traditional, or a Arial typeface that does not have the flair on the ends (see the EAK monogram below).

Other ideas:

Diamond Monogram – This is where the first and last name all come together in a diamond shape, last name goes in the middle.  See JRL monogram, the third image down.

Circular Monogram – We can put the letters inside a circle (see SEC below). Again, last name goes in the middle.

Stacked Monogram – Stack the first and middle name on top of each other, and put the last name in a larger size to the right.  See MWC monogram below.

Nautical Flag Monogram – This is where we use nautical signal flags for the monogram.  See the top belt below.

Tiny Monogram – Looking for something that is not going to stand out in the design, but still be personalized?  See the Tiny monogram below – fourth picture.

Custom Monograms – Do you have an idea not on here?  We’ve done monograms from wedding invitations and we have over 200 type faces to choose from.  So, send us an image of something you like and we’ll see what we can do!  You can see more monogram ideas on Pinterest.

Monograms are important and we include free custom monograms on all of our designs!

Tropical Gamefish Needlepoint Belt

How great is Tracy (our designer)?  I think she is wonderful and if you agree, why not let her know by leaving some feedback in the comments about her work on the new Tropical Gamefish Needlepoint Belt!

Boating and needlepoint have long ties, the look and quality of a hand stitched belt makes the outfit at the tournaments.  Or, when just wearing it around town, people will stop and stare at this design.  This design is also available to stitch yourself as a gamefish needlepoint kit.

This belt features many of the favorites: Marlin, Bluefin tuna, Wahoo, Yellowfin tuna, Mahi Mahi, Swordfish, King Mackerel, Sailfish, and Blackfin tuna. But, if there is something missing or you want to adjust the order, just let us know!

Custom monograms are Free, and you can even change the background color.  Don’t forget to let Tracy know if you love the design!
