How To Make Felt Letters





This is a first.  

I can't find, after search and searching, retracing my steps the link to these photos. 
If anyone knows, please leave a comment so I can update this post
and give credit where credit is due!

Aren't these puffed felt letters sweet?   I love them. 

I do remember the link explaining how they were made.  

1.   She used one of the fonts in microsoft word and printed each letter to make a pattern. 

2.   Cut out two of each letter.   Hand stitch front and back together, leaving just 
enough of an opening to stuff with polyfil.   After filling, finish closure with a whip stitch. 

In the photo's below you can see the hand stitching. 



In searching for my other link, 
I came across these felt letters and numbers on Etsy.  
You could also apply a magnet to the back and hang them on a chalkboard - cute!

Although they are sold out this is the link
