Turkey Shirt

Today I made Kara a t-shirt to wear for Thanksgiving. I found a tutorial here last year but it just took me 12 months to actually do it....

I found this cute shirt at Old Navy on Monday for $8. (Yucky picture)

Making shirts like this are really easy and you can applique just about anything---the key is to look for cute "plain" shirts  on sale so you can applique something fabulous on them.  I go shopping so rarely that when I am ready to do my applique I have to go buy a shirt for $8 instead of $2.  Jones Design Company (one of my favorite blogs) has an Easy-Peasy applique tutorial that doesn't require sewing. Basically I used the pattern from the turkey shirt and the process from JDC.

I think she will be already to eat some turkey next week! At least she will be cute doing so.
