Gettin Crafty Challenge Week #1

For the first week's challenge I actually did a few things, mostly because it was Gia's birthday. Instead of showing you each thing, I am going to show you my favorite. I made this cute outfit for her Chuck E Cheese party and I loved how the tee turned out. It was really quick (which I LOVE) and the great thing is you can make just about any sort of shape out of the same technique and it would be totally cute! All I did was cut out a cupcake shape with felt and then a smaller version with different cotton fabrics. Ironed it all on the tee (in layers) and then straight stitched around everything. This morning after trying the tee on Gia wanted a cherry on top so I added a piece of matching felt and little pink button. The pants were just very simple capri type pants with a bias trim. I found some wrapping paper that matches the plaidy print and she totally coordinated...it was totally cool (at least I thought so!).


I am going to move the links of some of the first week's post over to this one so we can all show off our projects for the challenge. I am also going to add a link under the banner on the sidebar so you can find everything easily and follow along if you would like. :)
