Button Monogram

Made this for my daughter.  I used the computer and printed out the letter.  I made it to fit on an 11x8-1/2 sheet of paper.   Cut out and traced the outline onto cotton fabric using chalk.  There are approximately 104 buttons, which are all hand stitched using DMC thread.  Then stretched it onto a 12 x 12 canvas and stapled it on the back side.  The ribbon is also stapled to the back in each corner.  The hanging ribbon was also stapled in place.  

Wonder what else I can use the handy staple gun for.  :-)
