Snips and Snails and puppy - aw screw that

[alathia.livejournal.com]

Boy clothing seems to trend towards puppies! construction vehicles! dinosaurs! trains! Not that there is anything wrong with those (my kids actually really love dinosaurs) but finding cool boy shirts that don't cost more than my own clothing is pretty difficult these days.

So I made these shirts for my boys for Christmas. They are appliqued from felt, then I'm going to iron them on through the iron on transfer, then as a final touch embroider details. The shirts cost me $4 each, way cheaper than trying to find something they like online!

To the stars!




this project started because I made a rocket shirt for my youngest. He didn't want it, his older brother wanted it. Littlest one wanted a dragon.

So I made a dragon shirt for him


then big brother wanted his own dragon shirt


then, we got to the good stuff. I present...the cutest yoda shirt EVER


big brother wanted someone different


I had made them these stormtrooper shirts this summer, using a bleach pen and embroidery




thanks for looking!
