So I headed to Target in hopes that they would have short sleeved shirts. It is a little early I guess, and there were none that were plain enough to use for my project here. But this cute little tee was on clearance so I picked it up. I decided on this pink floral fabric because I knew I wanted to do my pink giraffe. I set to work to get things cut out and ready to sew.
I went ahead and blew up the giraffe to cut out as my template for the fabric.
After I cut out the template I placed it on the shirt to be sure it was the size that I wanted for the tee.
Then I used an erasible fabric pen (found at any fabric store) to trace the template onto the fabric.
Now I am ready to head to the sewing machine.
Check back for the final steps, the template for you to use, and pictures of the final product.
Enjoy!
I love it!! I wish I was that crafty!
ReplyDeleteThis looks great, Alison! Can't wait to see the finished product. I must admit that I am also (selfishly) looking forward to seeing your boyish ideas for DC! For whatever reason, I always think sewing for little girls is soooo much more fun than sewing for boys. I find myself making more projects for my neice than for my own boys (blush).
