Most Latin sororities and fraternities that I know of do not allow pledges to wear letters of the organization in any way, shape, or form--no greek letters (iron on or stitched), nothing spelled out in words, no nicknames of the sorority, etc. Gifts with letters, colors, symbols, crests, mascots, etc. are not given to any pledges until they "cross" (are initiated as full-fledged members).
I understand that everyone has different feelings on this topic, but I personally feel that I do not want anyone but sisters (hermanas, sorors) of my organization to wear my letters.
Many LGLOs, BGLOs, and MCGLOs also have handsigns (a symbol of your org made with your hands. If you don't understand, think sign language), which pledges are not allowed to do until they have crossed.

Co-sign!!
And I must say that I saw some girls from your sorority on-line earlier this year in NYC. The line was very tight...especially since it was pretty cold out that night.
