He's a tall skinny one so it's hard to get tees off the rack that fit him. Great ideas for embellishment!thingsforboyshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11025820476772182937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8132483453876386896.post-40927525963464172522013-01-22T20:02:28.367-05:002013-01-22T20:02:28.367-05:00My favorites online are Banberry Place, The Fabric...My favorites online are Banberry Place, The Fabric Fairy, Near Sea Naturals, and Spoonflower - listed in order of priciness! I prefer to sew with interlock knit, so I'll often buy a bunch of white or off-white interlock and dye it the colors I want using procion dyes. I also upcycle a lot of thrifted t-shirts - I can get them at $0.50 to $1.00 at one of the thrift stores here.

I agree that t shirts found in stores do not compare to those you can make yourself. :) Especially when you have a little one with a super long torso...no belly shirts for my kiddo! Thanks again.

BUT you are right - thin fabrics don't hold up & things like V necks & buttons on shoulders don't show up in Walmart's selection of Ts ;-) You've definitely inspired me to pull out the serger!Sabrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02111729173800005608noreply@blogger.com
