Okay, a bit of a panic. How is Easter THIS weekend? It's sweet girl's first Easter, which means a basket is needed. Of course I have to make one for her, since I made one for him. (Here's his).
For his I spent oodles of time getting everything just so, hand placing, hand sewing. There's a time crunch here, I needed jiffy. Enter Heatnbond. I've never been much a user since I am a sewer, but I whipped it up, without sewing, in a jiffy. Phew. And it was F-R-E-E. We all know how I love that word.
The leftover HeatnBond pieces, I just couldn't toss. I made them into little hearts for my little guy to decorate a shirt for his sister.
I must say he did a great job, placing them so.
He was so excited to give it to her.
This was another shirt with a stain...can't see the stain now.
She loves the shirt.
And he was hollering at her for getting it dirty at dinner. "AUDRA! Don't get your new shirt dirty! I made that for you!
Anyway, an applique in a jiffy too. From what i understand, you can just go ahead and wash/dry the shirt with this new sew HeatnBond. If you're not a sewer, you can try to make one of my applique shirt patterns with HeatnBond. Need a pattern, look here. Little crafting successes make me smile just as much as bigger projects. Onto the next now...
I love that your little man decorated a shirt for his sister (and that mom made it possible :-). That' so cute. Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteThat Easter basket is so cute! I just love it. And how sweet that he made a shirt for his little sister. Adorable! Hope you have a wonderful Easter weekend :)
ReplyDeleteThat basket is adorable! and HeatBond is my friend.. that's how I made The Kid's St. Paddy's day shirt, I was going to make her an Easter shirt but I ran out of time. I certainly do not have time (ambition, talent... insert your own word here) to sew!! Good Job Mama (and Adri!)
