So… in case you hadn’t noticed…

I’m kind of a fan of making ruffle pants… And also of making coordinating appliqued or otherwise embellished shirts.

…Um, yeah, so slightly a few. And if you type “shirt” into the search bar up there on the right top of the blog, you get NINE PAGES of shirt goodness, lots of simple shirt embellishment, applique, and iron-on goodness at your fingertips.

So, if you haven’t cozied up to Heat’n’Bond yet, here’s your chance! Click on any of the shirt personalization posts above to see how I did them!

Basically, this is the same technique as with the pumpkin felt applique.

But rather than ironing on the felt then hand-stitching some detail as on the pumpkin shirt, I ironed on the ribbons to the felt, trimmed, then ironed on the tree to the shirt. I finished it up by hand-sewing on a little pom-pom tree topper.

Hooray! Christmas party ready!
