i learnt this technique at college and finally decided to use it :)

i've been really generous with the time as it took me 20 mins with getting all of my stuff together and clearing up after.

You Will Need (6 things)

  • 1 Pencil(s)
  • Design You Want For You Tee
  • 1 Fabric Scissors
  • 1 T Shirt In The Size And Color That You Want To Wear(fitted is best)
  • 1 Chalk Or Tailor's Chalk
  • 1 A3 Paper

Steps (4 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    find a design you want and draw it onto the A3 paper with the pencil.

    cut out the stencil and trace it onto you t-shirt using the chalk.

  2. 2

    pull the t-shirt tight over something sturdy. i used a chopping board. and secure it with a hair band or elastic band.

    draw lines going across the design (about 2cm apart) missing out any parts in the design. (in mine i left the eyes and nose)

    cut down the lines being careful to miss out the parts that dont have lines.

  3. 3

    Pull along the fabric strips to stretch them and weave if you want to. i weaved the top of the skull on mine to make the v shape.

  4. 4

    add any embellishments.

    i added red buttons for the eyes and a bow for added cuteness :)
