Does anyone know if a company makes fabric with specific names on it? I was wanting to make pillow cases for the grandsons and I wanted their names on them.

I haven't ordered from them but have read about it on the net.
Not cheap either. If you have a good printer maybe you could do it yourself.

Perhaps embroider the names on, via hand or machine?

Also, you can do patchwork letters ... alphabet PP patterns are on QuiltersCache or you could do it abstract on your own.

I'd consider having them embroidered on.

I saw some letters you could paper piece on the web. I can't remember what size they were, but it was a neat idea.

You could even make letters with a stencil then wonder-under them on and machine applique around them onto the pillow cases..be sure to post a photo when you get them done..we ALL want to see!!
