Lately, I’ve become one of those girls that finds a great T-shirt, then I buy it in every color (and sometimes doubles!). My favorites are these Boyfriend V necks from Target with a cute little pocket. I buy them when on sale for about $5 each. I cannot resist. As comfy as they are, sometimes it gets a little dull. Thus, this little revamp was born. Using some pre-made fabric flowers I’ve had lying around (that I purchased very much on clearance), I brought a little springtime into this otherwise drab T. I stitched them on by hand, which is surprisingly therapeutic! Easy project. Can’t wait to sport this little number during such a cold, snowy winter.

My first attempt at making an applique…the “right” way. Not sure why I settled on a pair of lips, but hey… it’s fun! (at least I think so, even if it does end up just being a p.j. shirt) My favorite part about the shirt is that the lips are soft. I used some red flannel fabric my husband had purchased a while back. I have never worked with flannel before so I hope it will hold up alright over time. Either way, it was fun and easy to make! My promise to you… MORE APPLIQUES TO COME!!
