Illuminated letter

On a recent course with Angie Hughes we delved into the fabric version of illuminated letters. Angie had some lovely samples to show us as well as a selection of letters to choose from. I thought a W was a bit ambitious for a first attempt, so used an E, my second initial, or the second letter in my name. All depends on how many more I make. The fabric is felt, with foil added, and then stitched. It measures approx 5" x 5". There is a lot of hand stitching in these, so as long as the first stage is done they are ideal to take away, and do on visits to family etc. I am entering this in One little Word  challenge, which is 'colour'
