Then I simply used a small amount of fabric glue and then outlined it in gold paint (the edges that is). I'd probably do the same thing on a shirt, but before outlining the edges with paint i'd do a little stitching so the fabric doesn't frey away after washing.

We do something similar...

We go to the 5 for 10 T-Shirt store, and pick up enough t-shirts so that everyone has two. Then we go to the fabric store and pick up some cute fabric, iron on adhesive and puffy paint.

You iron on the adhevsive stuff to the material... Then you cut out the letters. Once you've done that (the cutting out takes the longest) then you iron the letters onto your shirt. Then you puffy paint the edges, so that the material won't unravel.

You can also decorate your sleeves with some of the fabric. Like our chapter mascot is the butterfly, so a lot of the sisters got butterfly fabric... When we were done with our letters, we started cutting out the butterflies, and ironing them onto our sleeves and stuff.

It's really cute. We do this usually on Bid Day... So that the new ladies will have a t-shirt to wear, with the letters on it!

Hope this helps ya out!

Fraternally,
