Hi my crafty friends! I broke out the sewing machine last night. I added some flair to some t-shirts for my little boys to wear on July 4th! It was super simple and cheap. Mine is a “boyish” design, but you could do a “girly” design too.

You will need…T-shirt mine’s from Target $4, some fabric, I found the perfect fabric at a thrift store for .50 cents! Some fusable webing, craft store or Wal Mart. I have had some in my craft closet for years.Iron, sewing machine, scissors, thread, paper for pattern.

You Will Need (8 things)

  • T Shirt
  • Fabric
  • Fusible Web
  • Iron
  • Sewing Machine
  • Scissors
  • Thread
  • Paper for pattern

Steps (7 steps, 40 minutes)

  1. 1

    So first cut out your pattern. I just drew mine freehand and cut it out, but you can find everything online, just google it! Mine is a tie.

  2. 2

    Next I cut my tie out of my fabric. Just pin it on and cut.

  3. 3

    Now you need to add your fusible web…I forgot to take pictures of this step, but just follow the directions on the packaging. It’s easy. I just laid my tie on the glue side of the fusible web, pinned it, cut it out, then ran the iron over it to attach. You will have the glue side stuck to the fabric and the paper side facing out on the back.

  4. 4

    Now you can attach it to your t-shirt. So peel the paper off, place it where you want on you t-shirt and run the iron over it.

  5. 5

    Now you want to zigzag stich all around your design.

  6. 6

    All done! Ready to wear! Pretty darn cute too!
