As I was wondering around JoAnn fabrics last weekend looking for fun valentine fabrics to make headbands with I got inspired. I was looking at the conversation heart fabric and said to myself..."I wonder if I could make a t-shirt with a conversation heart on it" Then in my head I went through what I would need to do. I reverted back to the sorority days when we would make our own letter shirts. I figured it was a similar concept except I needed something for the letters. Then I walked past the felt. After a couple of consults with my mom and sister and a quick review of my sewing machine manual to learn a zig zag stitch, I was ready to go. I found it interesting how much of my college experiences came back to me while I was making these shirts. In addition to being in a sorority, I also was an RA and made a ton of bulletin boards which got me pretty good at making block letters! So I can thank my college activities for the creation I am about to unveil to you. My favorite part about these awesome shirts is that they can be customized to include your favorite conversation heart saying! I really enjoyed making these and hope to make one for you soon! For more details, check out my etsy shop!
So I realize that the above are shirts and not accessories but what I am finding is that now that I have learned how to sew (I only learned 1 year ago), my mind goes crazy with ideas. And I sometimes surprise myself that I am able to actual create what I am thinking...so who knows what other fun non-accessories I will come up with!
It's always fun to try something new. Great job!!
