after utilising some old high school art class creativity. i created a linoleum stamp. to which i stamped some fabric & overlocked the edges......which i then attached to the back of the finished t-shirt... ...and then hey presto, a finished t-shirt. i know its basic stuff & its just a t-shirt, but its my first one, its my first attempt at sewing with really stretchy stuff, its my first attempt at sewing something completely with my overlocker & so i'm kind of chuffed. the negatives are that it isn't quite the 'very fitted' style that i had hoped. i used an old t-shirt of hubby's as the base template, knowing it was a little big i just sewed away from the edge a bit more in the hope that it would reduce it slightly. not quite enough apparently. still, it fits & probably cost me a whole $2.00 to make....next project here i come!!
I live in Perth WA & I'm on a mission! A mission to simplify, be aware, be resourceful & mindful of the environment, whilst delving into the long lost art of handmade goodies...with a modern twist of course!
