It was fun using up the leftover blue jean fabric scraps to make banners for two boys' bedrooms. For each letter, I created a simple triangle-shaped pattern and stitched down the sides and created a casing at the top. I then cut out the letters in a contrasting fabric, tracing them first on the fabric, and overstitched them with zigzagging onto the triangle-shaped pieces. The "cord" holding the banner pieces together is made from the thick leg seams and threaded through the casing with a large safety pin. I then just thumb tacked these to the walls! Depending on the number of letters in the name, you can run these up in less than two hours.
