#pinaddicts challenge no.2 - T-shirt flowers
I pinned the following image to my #pinaddicts board.
With the long term plan to make this infinity scarf:

Firstly though I concentrated on the flowers.
You will need: old t-shirts, felt circles, fabric glue, buttons, a bit of card to make a template and scissors.

Edith wanted to help as soon as she heard the word 'flower' and saw the pink t-shirt.
So I enrolled her in the task of drawing round the flower template 8 times.
We then did the following:
Then I got a bit carried away....
I tried using leftover curtain fabric. This was a bit trickier to manipulate but gave a nice shabby finish to the flower.
I will be using this in a future project.
I made a hairband from braided t-shirt fabric and tied on a smaller flower.
The smaller flowers can also be glued on to hair clips.
What do you think?
I am now off to search for some t-shirt fabric to make the scarf!
Happy Pinning x x x
