A rainy day is a perfect day for an after school activity. Try this one:
Tees, Please
Gather a cotton t-shirt in any colour, pictures cut out from printed fabric of cars, aircraft, horses, stuffed animals, flowers, etc, scissors, dual sided fusible interfacing, fabric paint in tubes, wide pieces of cardboard
Wash and dry the tshirt first, don't use fabric softener. Cut out the pictures and other shapes from the fabric. Plan your original design. Then cut out interfacing to match the fabric pieces. Iron the interfacing onto the fabric pieces onto the tshirt. Slip cardboard form into the tshirt to make the fabric taut before painting. Using fabric paint in tube, outline all edges of the pictures. Let the paint dry, and then outline the edges again. Let dry for 24 hours. Avoid using fabric softener in the wash later because it could loosen the fabric pictures.
Happy Crafting,
