Thanks Plenty of companies seem to do name labels but not individual letters.

C&H Fabrics do them.

I can't find them on the website NAB. Do you know what they're called?

Well ebay have them but were charging something like £12 for 3 sets of the whole alphabet plus all manner of punctuation symbols etc that I don't really want!

used to sew nametapes but now write the name with biro or marker pen.

I was meaning individual cloth letters that you sew on, are you meaning regular name tapes?

aaarrrggghhh · 14/11/2007 12:20

Yes individual cloth letters is what I'm after. I've got name tapes already. Maybe I could actually sew the letters like some clever mums do . What stitch would I do? What kind of thread would I need?

The ones I had seen in C&H were quite big, about 3", and they would just be sewn on with any stitch really.

I used squeezy fabric paint that I got at hobbycraft. They do iron on transfer letters as well.

John Lewis had some but they were pricey
What about cutting the letters out of felt and sewing that on?
