Does anyone have any idea where I would start looking for individual letters of the alphabet? I want to make my grand daughter her name in letters and colors that will match her room.

Thanks in advance!

You can buy precut letters at JoAnn's. I use them as patterns for letters. That way, you can make the letters (words) any color or fabric you choose. Adhere them with a heat and bond product and you're good to go.

You might also try the Paint program on your computer
you can make words or just letters in any font or size
print them out to use as a pattern

If you enjoy paper peicing, check Carol Doak's site, her books and CDs have letters.
