[blparent] adding texture to game pieces

[Eileen]

Unfortunately Braille labels are too big for the tiles. Each piece has
sections about a quarter inch square and the surface is not flat.

Could you use some labeling tape and put the first letter of each color
on 
the tile?  I would think the Braille would still allow the piece to fit
into 
the grid.
