Some fonts that are in the machine are thin lines and there is nothing you can do about it. Do you have other fonts to choose from? Can you do it in more than one line?

Is it a design or are you using lettering from your machine or software? If you have software you could make any combination you want in a jiffy. You don't have to keep to one line, which enables using larger letters. As in the picture I added. And you could choose a font you liked.

I would think that would work but it would depend on the font size you are trying to use. Do you have the design or writing it yourself? I put, in my decorative stitches, Legal 9mm and it worked fine. I don't know if you have any software to do this. I don't know the finished height you are wanting either.

Whoops, I didn't meant to mention the height. Of course, 4x4 hoop.

Is WE ARE FAMILY a design or are you doing lettering? If it is a design can you put a link to where you got it. That way we can see what you are talking about and help you better.

Lettering. I am expecting 3 grand babies a month apart. I thought it would be great to put on a burp cloth. I would like to have the letters on one line. Under these letters I am going to put each child's name. Don't know the names yet.

Are the letters in your machine, if yes, are they letters offered too big to get them in one line, or do you have software to do the lettering? Or do you need someone to digitise it?

The letters are in my machine, but when i try to embroider the line is too thin. I have changed to a smaller needle. Not sure what I am doing wrong. I would love to have someone to digitize it for me. But, I sure this would come up again, therefore as a Newbie to embroidery I will need to learn how. Any tips or trick you have please send my way.
