My daughter needs me to make a quilt for a special little girl and wants me to personalize it and put her name on it. Of all the books I have I don't have letters to cut out to put her name on it. Does anyone know of a free site I can download letters for appliqueing? Thanks, in advance... warm hugs.. Janet

I use the computer and find a font I like and just increase the font size and print out the letters to use as my pattern.

Check with Crafty Bear she has letters.

Here's a link

:thumbup: I use the same method.

Thank you so much Crafty Bear....I was searching for them a few months ago and couldn't find them.

YOU QUILTERS ARE AWESOME!!!! I KNEW I COULD COUNT ON ALL OF YOU.... LOTS OF THANKS AND LOTS OF WARM HUGS... Janet

This is a fantastic idea

Don't forget to reverse them - particulary if you are using fusible interfacing.

I hear you... I forgot about that one time... Lesson learned. I will be emailing a picture of it when I am finished... Thanks again!!!

Don't forget to put a secret pocket on the back. Or, zipped pockets and leave a note or surprise in it for her.

OK, Ladies ... thank you all so much for all the info and input. Your help was really appreciated. Here is the finished quilt I will be giving her. I do this style a lot of Project Linus. Too bad I can't personalize them all like this one. Thanks again!!! Warm hugs from FL, Janet
