Designer: Lisa Truesdell
This no sew fabric project is the perfect gift for a baby shower. You can customize it to match any nursery’s color scheme, or use a more traditional pastel palette if you prefer. I used a monogram and name on my piece, but you could replace the monogram with a heart and the name with a word like “sweet” or “loved” if the parents-to-be are keeping the name a surprise.

Instructions
(Print version)
 1. Using your rotary trimmer, trim background fabric to 5x7in. 2. Apply iron on interfacing to the strip of fabric you’re using for the bottom. Trim to 2x5 in, using your pinking sheers along the top edge. Iron fabric in place on the background fabric. 3. Adhere ribbon along the fabric section at the bottom. 
4. Stamp your name or phrase above the ribbon.
5. Apply iron on interfacing to the fabric you’d like to use for your letter. Create a template for your monogram by hand drawing it or printing it out from your computer in the size you’d like. Cut your fabric using the template as a guide. Iron the letter in place on the background fabric.
6. Insert your completed fabric piece into your frame.
