Time for another Brother Sews Quick Tip! Use built in alphabet and decorative stitches from the sewing side of your machine to make a quick decoration for a baby gift.
- Program desired lettering and stitch at each end of the ribbon using tear away stabilizer underneath. Add a row of decorative stitching to the edge of the ribbon. See Figure #1.
- Remove excess stabilizer and press ribbon flat.
Tip: Use a little fabric spray starch to press the ribbon nice and flat.
- Fold a 7-inch piece of ribbon to form a bow, gathering the center with basting stitches
- Use button sewing stitch and button foot to sew a button in center of bow and attach it to main piece of ribbon. See Figure #2.
Wasn’t that fun and easy? Attach ribbon to a pretty package or a basket filled with gifts for a new baby!
Note: Grosgrain ribbon shown here measures 1 1/2-inches wide by 15-inches long.

What a great little project! Such a special touch added to any gift.
Thanks Janice!
I know we all love to use the embroidery side of the machine for lettering but the built in fonts on the sewing side are really nice too! They are great for writing a quick little custom message – small, neat, and very easy to stitch. I also like using them to make labels for custom made clothing. I’m sure you have many ideas of your own 😉
