I have been doing a lot of the fabric letter appliques and wanted to experiment with felt. Some friends of mine (who are sisters) both had babies within a week of each other so these were a perfect little gift for them. They have a "J" thing going.......now into the third generation. After ironing them on, I thought they needed a little something extra so I hand-stitched around the letters with embroidery thread and I think they look a lot better. Although, next time I think I would have done the hand-stitching before the adhesive because it was a pain sewing through all the layers.
