Shirts for the boy and a skirt

I got a bunch of shirts for .50 at Walmart a while back, they are all a boys size 16 so I am resizing them to fit B.

I cut out this applique from an old shirt that was too worn to keep anymore but the front part wasn't stained (miraculously) so I used it!

This is one I re-sized and I love how it fits B, the neck really isn't stretched out its just where I taped it to my wall ;0)

I had some random girl fabric so I made a skirt it fits B, and for obvious reasons he won't wear it (kidding! I wouldn't ask him to wear it), I'll have to pass it on to a niece I guess!

4th of July Shirts

I made the boys 4th of July shirts, even though I was up pretty late the night before making them, I'm glad I did it! I made B and P's from scratch but not C's I already had a white shirt for him.

B's shirt turned out good and I made it in about an hour minus the applique.

For the flag I cut it out of an old shirt and hand sewed it on.

C's shirt

I used plain white muslin for the stars and hand sewed them in place.


P's shirt

I embroidered X's for the stars, I think it's my favorite one I did.

A tip for sewing applique's on knit fabric it to use stick glue to put them where you want. It washes right out, it stiffens when dry making sewing easier and you don't need to pin it!

I used my tutorial for the shirts.
