I wanted to make a little something for Miss Ada and instead of working on my list of things that need to get done I did this. The top photo is what the shirt looked like when I bought it.
Here it is now. I think that she will look cute in it. And it is not pink (not that I mind pink, but I get a lot of grief about all the pink Ada wears. I can not help it if she look wicked cute in pink;)
Here is a close up. (not the best job, but it was my first and I like it.)I have to give a BIG thanks to Stephanie who showed me how to do this. She rocks!

I love dinosaurs!!! Did you just use a zig zag stitch to attach it?
Tracey,
Yes I did use a zig zag stitch. I love the dinosaur also. I had intended to have a cute heart or something, but when I pulled out the cookie cutters (that is what I used to trace around) I saw this guy and it was to cute to pass up.
Oh man, that is such a great idea! Did you put interfacing on that before you zig zagged it on? I'd like to give that a try. I may have to raid my mother-in-laws cookie cutter collection:o)
Yes I put interfacing on the back of the fabric and the back of the shirt (where I was sewing it on). It was sew Heehee easy and fun.
You do not need cookie cutters if you have a good eye for drawing things... which I do not;)
I love the multicolor thread - it ties all the colors in so well!
Poop. Now I think I may HAVE to get that sewing machine from my mom!
Vicki, it is sew much fun;) I love the thread too. I have had it a long time and have not found a use for it until now. I may have to use it on more projects now.
