About Elegant Border
Elegant Border earned its place here for one reason: it is a straight answer to an embroidery frame, and straight answers are rarer in this pattern catalogue than you would think. The save count is still small at 35, so read this as our opinion and not a consensus. There are no reviews on it yet, so judge it by the preview and not by a score that does not exist.
We would use it the way the listing hints — arts embroidery — and that is also where we would start if you are trying it for the first time. Measure the finished repeat, not the hoop. Four repeats of a 180 mm border do not fit a standard pillowcase. One thing we always do and you should too: open the preview full size. A thumbnail hides exactly the detail that decides whether an embroidery frame is really what you are getting.
Type bernina, brother, custom embroidery and download embroidery into the search above and this one comes back — the same pattern under four different habits of phrasing. The same shelf also answers to borders, so widen the search there before giving up on it. We keep it under Border Embroidery Designs, which is where to look if you want the rest of the border embroidery designs we have gone through.

How to use this pattern
- Download the files from Creative Fabrica and unzip them into one folder.
- Print the pattern sheets at 100% — no scaling, no «fit to page» — and check the test square with a ruler before you cut anything.
- Tape the sheets together on the printed match marks, then cut the pieces out and keep the instruction sheet next to your machine.
- Sew a quick version in cheap fabric first if the shape is new to you; the second one is always the one you keep.
