Seems fairly easy using these instructions.

Cut out triangles of fabric using pinking shears. Then glue the edge of the short side over string.

thanks- that sounds better than sewing- it usually takes me an hour to remeber how to thread the flipping thing!

Is this to use as a one off or do you intend to keep it up eg childs bedroom. You could use some iron on interfacing to give it a little body, not expensive and easy to do. I made some for my grandaughters 1st birthday using MDF which I first painted white and then scrapbooking papers. I then painted wooden letters, her name, and glued them on. Ribbon was thread through holes in the wood and I finished off where the ribbon came through by sewing a contrating button on. She has 7 letters in her name and I also did a triangle at each end without letters i.e. 9 triangles in total.
