I also quilt heavily inside of them -- quilting lines 1/8 inch apart, more or less, following the countours of the letters. I like the texture it creates. You'll figure out what works best for you.

I'm impressed that these are your first letters - they already look great and you'll just keep getting better as you do them. These days I usually quilt in the ditch around the letters and then freehand elsewhere, but I used to do a lot of that 1/8" in from the edge. what a great little quilt – looks very antique in the pic.
