About this service

The layered felt border around a chenille letter or patch is part of its character. A single border frames the design; a double border adds a second felt color for a bolder, more traditional look. The border needs consistent width all the way around, including tight corners and inside curves. We digitize the tack-down, cut, and edge-finish lines so borders stay even and the felt layers stack neatly.

How we build it

  • Consistent border width around curves, points, and inside corners
  • Single and double felt borders with separate tack-down lines for each layer
  • Cut lines for trimming felt precisely around the design
  • Chain-stitch or zigzag edge finishes to secure the felt
