O Come All Ye Faithful for Christmas Table Linens
O Come All Ye Faithful is a one-color machine embroidery design that stitches the title of the Christmas carol in a single line of flowing script. The black lettering is shown above the hem of a white dinner napkin, where the flourishes are visible when the napkin is folded on a plate. The same inscription can run across the end of a linen table runner or along the woven band of a guest towel.
The complete phrase comes in five sizes. Choose a width that fits the visible panel of your napkin and a hoop that can stitch the whole line in one position. This is a finished inscription, not an alphabet or an editable font.

FAQ: Stitching the Christmas Inscription
How do I choose the right width and keep the lettering level on a napkin?
Fold the napkin as you will serve it and place a full-size printout on the visible panel. Leave space at both ends of the line and below the loops in Ye and Faithful. Align the template's horizontal axis with the hem and mark the center before hooping. The fourth and fifth color charts are printed at reduced scale, so use a full-size template from the embroidery file and check its width with a ruler.
Will the lettering fit a 5x7 hoop?
The 170.4 mm version fits a 130x180 mm (5x7") hoop along its long axis. It is 0.4 mm too wide for a 100x170 mm field. The four larger files need longer hoops. Use the machine's outline check to confirm that both ends of the inscription fit in the usable field in one position before you stitch.
What stabilizer should I use under the lettering on linen?
On firmly woven linen or cotton, test one layer of medium-weight tear-away backing. Hoop the fabric and backing flat without pulling the weave out of square. When removing the backing, support the fine strokes with a finger as you tear around the outside. If a loosely woven napkin still ripples on the test piece, try a lightweight cut-away backing and check that the finished corner still folds comfortably.
How can I keep the fine strokes visible on a guest towel?
Place the line on a smooth woven band if possible. Check that the band is tall enough for the lowest flourishes as well as the capital letters. On a low-pile terry towel, test a water-soluble topping over the pile with suitable backing beneath the towel. The topping helps keep the loops from showing between the fine stitches; it does not replace the backing.
