Default Need help to find alphabet templets

Hi, I am a new member to this forum. I am new with this hobby too. I want to make a name "plague" for my granddaughter to hang on her door. Could you please suggest a place where I can find some free templates? Thank you.

My granddaughter's name is ERIKA. It would be nice if I can make her a name plague like a door hanger. She is 5 years old and lives in Hong Kong. They cannot put nails on doors (rented apartment) so door hanger will be perfect. The letters will have to vertical in other words. Thanks for any help.

Thanks a lot. I can generate her name now easily. Wished there were a few more fonts though. I shall make a name plague that she can put on her desk. Thanks again!

If you have a word processing program (micro soft word) you can pick from many fonts and just enlarge them to the size you need and create a pattern of your own...

I know this doesn't look like it, but this took some time to do. I hope it's what you were thinking of. If it doesn't hang straight you might try putting a butterfly or heart or something on the light side and keep trimming it down until it hangs straight. I would appreciate you taking the time to post a picture if you decide this will work for you.
Best of luck
Russell
