I made a set of cotton letters for my niece Ella's first birthday. I followed this tutorial from a blog called Happy Together.
I just grabbed a bunch of cotton scraps and made each letter a different fabric, the same front and back. For the middle layer I used Warm and Natural batting. I thought it "ragged" the best after a few washings. I decided not to quilt the letters, like she did on the tutorial. I tried one with quilting and one without, and liked them the same, so went with the easier style! For the letters I used the font Ariel Black in size 500. (Set them to "outline" style so you don't use up so much ink.)
Happy birthday, sweet Ella!
