Monogram piece
Hi Ladies..any suggestions on how to monogram a pair of mittens after there are finished? I completed the set and want to add my nephews initials..I don't really want to X-stitch, maybe use an embroidery technique? Any suggestions??? Thanks girls..

Thx Ingrid, that's an awesome technique, I am still a "newbie" though!!! Would a "duplicate stitch" work just as well??? Thanks sooo much
