Guys and Patriotic Vibes blog tour -

Welcome to my new blog. I decided to keep quilting and sewing separate.

My goal is to blog about all of my clothing makes here. I want to be able to share things I have learned throughout my 45 years of sewing.

Welcome to the Guys and Patriotic Vibes blog tour. This blog tour is hosted by www.sewingblue.com.

Today I am sharing a cute t shirt, but not made by me. Life got a bit crazy.  I have had some long hours at work.




The shirt I am sharing was picked up at a Children's entrepreneurial fair. My granddaughters participate in these, and my daughter liked this shirt.  They encourage the kids to make the things they sell as well as collect the money.


The kids my daughter bought this from said they used their mom's Cricut machine to make the aplique. They said their mom watches them but they do it.


What a fun idea to make with your kids for the 4th of July.  Now, if you are like me, and you don't have one, you can always make designs like this, and use fabric with a fusible Web backing, such as wonder under and put it on with a zigzag stitch.

Next month with this tour, we will share ideas on changing up a t shirt pattern to customize it.

In the meantime, I have some fun blogs that I will be sharing with you. So be sure to follow me, so you don't miss anything.

Please visit my friends who have also joined in on this tour and see what they have done. We still have time to make things for the 4th of July. I will be sharing the patriotic makes for my group of 6 grandkids as soon as they are done.
