A T Shirt Tutorial for Children!

I absolutely love the following tutorial for short sleeved t-shirts from Dana Made It. I have decided to reuse old tshirts to be more thrifty and green. Looking through the pile of "What! It doesn't fit?" I found a couple World of Warcraft tees that my husband no longer wears. These will be perfect to remake to fit the youngest 2 boys. I can't wait to see how excited they are going to be to finally have their own WOW t-shirts. Pictures coming soon!

You can find the pattern and tutorial here http://www.danamadeit.com/2013/02/tutorial-and-free-pattern-5-steps-to-the-basic-tee.html I think the most amazing part of this pattern is that you will be able to personalize for whatever your little person is the most into. I am thinking that you could applique felt monsters, dinosaurs, surf boards, birthday boy with age, astronauts and more. I can tell this is going to be my new go to pattern for summer and back to school. I bet by leaving off the sleaves you could make tanks for the summer too. My youngest currently loves Jack Frost from the movie Rise of the Gaurdians I could see using transfer paper to make him his own Jack t=shirt. I think I may become the boys new t-shirt designer!

New blog!

Finally getting my blog up and running on blogger! Very excited to be part of Google! I am also opening a new etsy shop and designing a web page at the same time. I guess you can't be too busy, right?

This blog will have highlights of children's crafts, things that I am personally working on, recipes and menu ideas, places to travel, and what to do in Southern Idaho and Twin Falls.

Can't wait to start sharing!

Please let me know if you have any ideas or comments to make the site more wonderful!
