T-shirt with appliqué letters


My closet core Tee (free pattern) with some letters made from scraps from other projects. (YouTube SharonSews)
My inspiration was a Sézane t-shirt.
I’m finding it difficult to share my projects with all that’s going on in the world. It seems so frivolous. :disappointed_face:

I think if you find joy in it, you should share it. Its not frivolous, i sew for my mental health. Without sewing and sharing with my communities id be in a bad place. Hold on to the joy xx

Yes, holding on to the joy, taking care of our own mental health. I am so glad I have a hobby that brings me joy and a community to share it with :heart:

Thanks, I can’t stop making letters now. Too many scraps :face_with_hand_over_mouth:

Love the applique! I did similar with scraps but mine didn’t turn out quite as neat as yours :grinning:

I think its the extra row of stitching that keeps it neater.

I just went to Youtube to find the tutorial you mentioned - and I think it was the same one that I’d used and bookmarked at the time :slightly_smiling_face: Sew PATCHWORK Letters & Embellish a Sweatshirt ~ EASY Tutorial

I definitely need to go back and watch again before doing more letters. I love how it changes a simple plain tee into something unique.

I agree. I also love how you can match the letters with a skirt or pant you made.
