How to make fabric covered letters tutorial

[@shanroberts5762]

Hi Hayley, just a big thanks for this tutorial. I was asked to make these for my soon to be great grandson, and handed the letters and various bits of fabric. I didn't know where to start until I found your great tutorial. Now I'm one down, and just six more to go...

[@aprilmichelle427]

Thank you so much for sharing your talent and knowledge! I just made one for my nephew's nursery and I'm thrilled with it!

[@pamfrank3962]

Wonderful demonstration. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talent

[@boucles89]

Fantastic tutorial! I will definitely try this! Just need to find card board letters now! Thank you for the tutorial!

[@Pheebs77]

Totally doing this for my workshop :D You couls use pre folded binding tape if you wanted plain white or any plain colour for the edges, or if you want matching binding, get a Bias Tape Maker Binding Tool from ebay :)

[@1stTessa]

[@2point4grinsteds91]

+Tessa T thanks Tessa thanks for viewing :-)

[@debbiejones4074]

@@2point4grinsteds91 please can you update & do tutorials for awkward letters I’m struggling with M & A 🙏🏻

[@FOM222]

Can you please tell me where to purchase the letters from in uk? And what is the size you’ve used. Can’t find any.

[@amymahon1355]

I have capital A, R and O to do, how do you get into those small holes while keeping it neat please?

[@micheletsangping9744]

Great tutorial. Can you tell me where to buy the cardboard letters pse

[@jademcnamara8996]

a great video. I would LOVE to see how you navigate the letters with a small hole, eg A or B. thank you!

[@RhondaTheWriter]

oh my goodness, thank you so much for this tutorial! now off to find letters lol

[@fh2888]

hi there! loved your video. where do you buy the fabric from? thanks

[@ThePiggy10]

Love this! What material did you use please? Thanks xx

[@idrishaggett2789]

Excellent thanks from across the pond in Wales uk x

[@crockett1940]

Hi I’m struggling with letters like K & M. How do you do the bits at the inner points? I can’t seem to get my scissors into the points and it’s hard to fold any material into the inner points. My material then frays and I’m using really nice material. So I’m wasting it as I’m trying about 3 times. How do you do these letters please as I’m giving up all hope? I’m making for my sisters new baby girl. Thank you 😊😊

[@adamduffy5712]

I'm going to buy some fabric to do these... What length do i buy ? Will a fat quarter be enough per letter

[@Katsmith1342]

Are you saying Wadding, Whatting, or batting, (cotton)?

[@ReBeCcAGB1]

Hi, do you still make these ? I would be interested to purchase x

[@roselynshallcross1970]

This is a great tutorial - thank you for sharing. I was doing really well until I got to the A and I am now pulling my hair out with frustration. I know you have recommended to others to place the fabric before gluing but I am finding the fabric binding is too bulky to even fit. It would be really helpful if you could record it. Thank you Roz

[@2point4grinsteds91]

Hi, a few have struggled with this give me til next week and I'll record it. It's my baby's christening this week so I'm on a making mission with a million things! Xx

[@crockett1940]

2point4 Grinsteds hi could you do a tutorial for the A please so so difficult. I’m having the same problem as Roselyn. Thank you

[@blanks952]

Hi would a fat quarter be enough for one side? Also could you please do a tutorial on curvy letters and the tricky ones like an A K or M please? I really want to give this a go ❤️ thank you xx

[@sarahpugh749]

Thank you for sharing, I think I will make one.

[@Ucisusiyani]

Did you make the cardboard letter?

[@v1kster]

A bit late to the party but loving your video. Might be a stupid question but I’m curious as to why you join the two seems up the long side and not at an edge where they would be more hidden. Is it just personal preference or is there a reason for it? 😊

[@toobatuntharamzan790]

can i ask what type of glue you are using and dose it dry quick ? as i am looking forward one single bed project similar one .

[@clarejeffery5943]

Hello, can you tell me how to and fold round a letter N please? Many thanks

[@sunaynaliaqat1865]

Brilliant video! Thank you! I'm struggling with the A letter as just can't get the middle right. Any tips on how to do it?

[@HeavenReservation]

I love your creativity

[@pouryouaprintbytiffany492]

Hi.. Can you do a demonstration on how you would cover the letter k... It's very difficult... I'd like to see how you would tackle it please.

[@2point4grinsteds91]

Sorry I don't log on here often, what part are you struggling with x

[@noemiz19]

hi was wondering if you could give a tutorial on how to do the letter N

[@Rig289]

Hi there, great tutorial, where do you recommend buying the letters wholesale?

[@pitmike1231]

Hi loved your video well done. Can you tell what size letters you used I am trying to get sizes to do something like this for my husband and I 50 Anniversary thanks

[@bev2951]

Hi Just watched yiur fabric covered letters vid. Have you any tips for the rounded letters. Thanks

[@2point4grinsteds91]

+Bev Jenkins Hi Bev, rounded ones are done just the same and if anything once you get started I'd say they are a little easier. just make sure you pull the rim nice and taught as you go :) x

[@amypetty2624]

About how much fabric would you need to make 6 letters?

[@endygame7483]

nice👍where did you get the custom 'is for' corner tag?

[@tmhopkinds7599]

Hi, brilliant work! Can I ask how you’d do a J or curvy letters? Thanks

[@stephaniecortez3368]

Hi I loved your tutorial I want to try it myself, but wanted to know where you got the letters from??

[@kailynglass4873]

Where did you get your supplies from? Like the wadding? I want to do this for my nieces room 😊

[@abbeylockard579]

Amazing tutorial thank you so much!!!

[@Ells634]

Thanks for the great tutorial.

[@2point4grinsteds91]

TheRabz4u Thank you and your very welcome :)

[@laurawilkens2518]

How do you do the rounded letters? Do you have to cut it differently?

[@2point4grinsteds91]

Laura Wilkens you do it exactly the same, on tight corners you may want to make small slits in the fabric like i did in the corners on this video just to ease round smoother. hope that makes sense :)

[@chelsroach]

Hiya! What fabric is the best to use? X

[@sharmon42]

Great tutorial! Thanks!

[@askarisayira994]

What material is the cardboard that u've used for the base....

[@2point4grinsteds91]

Hi it was a pre brought cardboard letter from Crafty Crocodiles xx

[@nataliehanvey863]

Hey, where did you purchase your letters x

[@kirstenlerette7509]

I am trying to order some wadding but I it comes in oz what thickness do I need for this 2 4 6 or 8 oz ?

[@jherlyoung273]

Hi I have the same problem. Did you find out what the right size is?

[@kirstenlerette7509]

+Jerlin Young I got 4oz was too thin so doubled it up I would get 6 ot even 8oz next time

[@jherlyoung273]

+Kirsten Lerette cool thank you so much for your reply

[@reginaharris8039]

Awesome idea would love to do this for my grand children their initial are A & B. Where did you find those letters?

[@2point4grinsteds91]

You probably found them buy now but i got mine at Crafty Crocodiles xx

[@merseyside_uk]

hiya! where do you get the fabric? x

[@goolamchohan6592]

Beautiful tutorial🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦

[@rachlouiseb87]

Hi, thanks for the video, really helpful!! However, I am struggling to do the middle of the A in my daughters name Jasmine, any tips would be greatly appreciated x x

[@2point4grinsteds91]

Hi Rachael, the centre of the A is probably the trickiest! Rather than stick the edge as I go I try to place the whole inside piece where it should go then run the glue all the way round as close to the inside as I can. It doesn't have to be tight on the inside so don't worry about pulling it whilst you stick 😀

[@jherlyoung273]

Hi what is the wadding measurement coz I have no idea about the size and weight so I don't know how thick it is

[@2point4grinsteds91]

+Jerlin Young Hi I've always brought mine in person not online from dunelm but i think its around 8oz :)

[@jherlyoung273]

+2point4 Grinsteds cool thank you :)

[@jessicareynolds8462]

How.do you do the middle of an A, I'm really struggling :(. Thanks for the tutorial it's great x

[@jessicareynolds8462]

The middle part with the main fabric x

[@sally-mariegardner9856]

Hey! Great Tutorial... thank you so much! Im making them for my goddaughter for her 1st birthday. Her name is MEGAN. Ive done the MEGN with no problems... and ive nearly finished the A but im stuck with how to do the edging of the innee part of the A ? HELP! xxx

[@2point4grinsteds91]

Hi Sally the inside of the A is super fiddly! I find its best to put it in first without any glue then carefully pull up the edges and glue whilst it's in place. I had to use tweezers to push it into the corners I'm afraid there's no magic trick. Try again and if its still not happening let me know and I'll try to record it 😊

[@joanlizzy9236]

Wow

[@danielgadoi9142]

[@coreymcniel3390]

I really like it. Also check out Stodoys plans and plans.

[@2point4grinsteds91]

+Amy Petty Hi Amy, This totally depends on the width of your fabric and whether you are using a contrasting colour for the edging x
