I finished the owls which means…time for a totally new project!
I don’t know if you remember, but lately I’ve been playing with remaking tee-shirts so that they fit me. It’s really fun but I had trouble figuring out sizing. To figure that out I went and bought a bunch of giant ugly tee shirts to experiment on. I knew it was a new way of sewing and I would need a ton of practice so I bought quite a few. But…surprise surprise…I figured it out by tee-shirt # 3. Not too shabby. However, now I have a buncha giant ugly tee shirts.

So I cut them buggers up.
They look like this until you stretch them out. Then they look like this:

Now there are many things I can make with them. I choose….jewelry.
But, until then I just want to say that this shirt:
was awesome.
Unfortunately, a really large printed area on a tee shirt doesn’t stretch the way I need it to so I had to throw that part away. However, I still really enjoyed cutting up the word cancer.
I chopped it up real good.
On an unrelated note, I also fixed Mr. Floppy. He appreciates it, his face was loose. Now he can go home to my daughter; she has really missed him.
