Need:
cotton shirt (I found mine at Walmart for $2)
cotton or knit fabric---like the smallest amount you can cut. Even scraps if you have them since it's for a kiddie shirt.
Wonder Under
Cutsie hair bow (I found mine in the ribbon aisle at Joann fabrics. They come in a pack of like 6 for less than $2)
Needle/thread/sewing machine
Follow Wonder Under instructions. Trace image you are going to applique on the paper side of the wonder under after you fuse it to the fabric. *NOTE* When you trace on the back of the wonder under, be sure your image is "flipped", like mirror image on the computer since you'll be using the right side of the fabric for the applique and that is on the other side). Cut out image. Follow wonder under instructions to fuse it to your shirt. Zig zag around the applique once it's fused to the shirt. (I used a cotton fabric so the edges would fray if I didn't zig zag, but if I used knit fabric I would have just done a straight stitch close to the edge of the fabric since the knit won't fray). I suppose depending on the shape of the applique you choose, you could just hand stitch it as well. I hand sewed on a little tiny bow in the dino's "hair" so you have NO DOUBT she is a girlie dinosaur! All done.
Next time: I'll use knit fabric, I think it might be cuter. I'll also use a little bit brighter thread, you can hardly see the pink zig zags in this photo. Sometimes the stitches are just as cute and make the project look cute! I do happen to have an extra white tank top for Sydney too...and another dino, already cut out... :)
