Last week I got the itch to do a little sewing. I LOVE the fall time! It is my favorite season. I decided that I would try my hand at sewing clothes for Faith. I wanted to make an outfit for the pumpkin patch for Faith and a matching shirt for Peyton!
The pants were a challenge for me seeing that I had never read a pattern before. After making the pants three times and discovering that the instructions were INCORRECT I finished them. Next time it will be much faster as I know what I am doing now. The Applique was also a first. It was pretty simple. Here are the steps I took.
1. Drew out the design on Pellon transfer paper(this paper has a rough side and a smooth side. I ironed the rough side on the backside of the fabric.
2. I then cut out the fabric and peeled off the paper backing and them ironed it to the t-shirt.
3. I then ironed some stablizer on the inside of the shirt behind the design.
4. I free handed a Zig- Zag stitch around the design!
The stem is a ribbon!
I made a Tukey shirt that goes with the Orange pants as well!
