I own a 6500 and a 350e and I am looking for a font that is larger and more substantial than the fonts on the 6500/6600 BUT smaller than the smallest font that the Janome 350e can make. Does anyone know where I could purchase such a creation?

Is it even possible? I want to make quilt labels and I'd appreciate any advice you 350e owners might be able to give me. I am a very experienced quilter but a newbie at embroidery!

Thank you!

How small do you want it to be?
I also have the 350e. You can increase and decrease designs after they appear on the screen although that changes the density of the stitch out.
Maybe if you can find a small font online, then decrease it a little through the machine it would be the size you want?
Sorry I can't give you exactly the answer you want.

Thanks Nadine, I have reduced by 10% as per the Janome edit screen several times but the font is still thick (to my eye). I'd really like a writing font like the 6500 but a little bigger.

Maybe try to edit the font thru Embird? Although I've never used it and don't know if it'll fix the density.

I use Monogram Wizard to create labels. It is not just for monograms. Attached is a picture of one so you can see what it looks like. It was sewn on fabric that matched the backing. There are several different fonts you can choose from.

That looks really good! I will have to put that one on my Software List!
