So it's been a few weeks since I have been able to share some blog post with y'all, so these are alittle dated but still FUN. This one is of my BIRTHDAY:) They had another parade for me this year... awhhh , there so sweet:) SO, we went and had a great time. My son didn't really have a green shirt to wear this year, so below I share my quick shirt idea for him!
|
So, I have a bunch of half t-shirts laying around from when I made my t-shirt quilt ( which I still need to get on here, sorry, will do that soon).... So, I used the bottom of this green shirt to make a small shirt for my little man. Just leave 1/4 to 1/2 inch around the shirt and trace/cut it out. |
|
Then, you can't see this here, but I did cut ( below) a small scoop out of the back shirt for the neck and a slightly larger on out of the front for the neck... this is the most tricky part, I did this around 1 hour before the parade, so NOTHING is perfect here. But it works:) Pin the shirt now... |
|
I tried doing a few cuts around the neck to make it easier to turn under and trim, should have done bigger triangle cut though, would have been easier... |
|
sew up the sides and the under arms, NOT the open part the arm comes out of:) |
|
Now sew from the top end of the sleeve to where the open whole is for the head:) On both sides. |
|
Fold over, twice if you can and have time, and sew.... I did this so syco fast, you can see the results, not beautiful, but I'm sure yours will be SO much more lovely if you take more then a minute to do it!!! |
|
Fold and sew the sleeve hems. |
|
For a quick decoration, get that sharpie out and use it well!!! |
|
Why not throw something on the back! |
|
and the sleeves |
|
Happy green boy! |
