after weeks, actually make that months of procrastinating over making this t-shirt i've finally done it and am very happy with the result. what do you all think?

part of the problem was finding the right t-shirt. which i did in Marks and Spencer's summer sale last week. it's a different colour pink than in the photograph but you get the idea.

i got the image from scanning love heart sweets and swapping letters around and stuff using Adobe Photoshop. i've had that bit done for ages.i bought Hewlett Packard Iron on t-shirt transfer paper in Easons, 21.99 for 10 sheets. I was a bit apprehensive at first but i go my mum to help me, (well it did say adult supervision is advised for the ironing on bit ;p ) but it was really easy.

it recommends that you only use pale or white tshirts for ironing onto but since i wanted it on a bright pink tshirt i ironed it onto a piece of white t-shirt material then cut that out and herringbone stitched it onto the tshirt.

i've impressed myself ;)
