When I saw Mike Adamick, regional daddy as well as writer, on an afternoon talk show speaking about embellishing adorable tee shirts for his daughter, I believed it was unlikely I’d discover something new. I mean, I’ve already written about embellishing onesies in just about every method I can believe of. however behold, Mike taught me yet one more technique.
He utilizes fusible webbing to adhere the material of his choice, state a giraffe-shaped piece of floral print, to the tee shirt he is embellishing.
Before you panic as well as believe that as a not-so-crafty person you are absolutely unqualified to purchase something called “fusible webbing”, let me guarantee you that it’s not such a huge deal. purchase it by the lawn at a material store, or in a bundle from Amazon, as well as it includes instructions. (Ten bucks for five lawns worth on Amazon.) The magic is that you iron it to one piece of fabric, peel off the paper, as well as then iron it to the other side. now the two materials are adhered. (Keep scrolling for pictures.)
I had cut this guitar from a hipster youngster tee shirts that Julian outgrew as well as tossed it into my “to do something with someday” pile, throwing the rest of the tee shirt into the cloth bag.
Next, I took scissors to the previously mentioned fusible webbing cut. To create a piece precisely the size of the guitar-shaped piece of tee shirts I wished to use, I put the material on the webbing in buy to cut.
Then, I ironed the guitar to the fusible webbing, as well as let it cool. I had made a decision that this red long-sleeved polo, gotten by my MIL as a Christmas shirt, would be the recipient of our applique.
Then, I peeled off the paper to expose a ready-to-iron-on applique. I put the applique on the tee shirt as well as ironed.
Now a well-loved tee shirt has a new life, as well as a when ordinary long-sleeved polo tee shirt has a lot more personality.
Voila! See a lot more motivation on Mike’s blog.
