Now this is a nice idea, a wedding present with a handmade touch. First buy two bathrobes, for him and for her and decide what colour to use for their initials to make it stand out. In this case red felt on white bathrobes. Next use the computer to find a font that you like and enlarge them to make the letters about 4 inches high (10cm). Transfer the outline onto bondaweb paper in reverse. Cut out and iron onto the reverse of your appliqué fabric. Cut out again in the fabric, peel off the paper and iron the initial to the left side chest on the bathrobe. This keeps your initial safely in place for sewing. Take it to the machine, use a clear embroidery foot and a narrow satin stitch in the same colour as the letter to sew all around the edge. This was fiddly in the curly parts of the letter however I’m quite pleased with the results. I’m sure this couple will be delighted.
