Tie Dye Tee

Okay, I'm not sure if this counts for KCWC, but I did sew on a pocket, so I'm going with it.  Here's the story:  I ordered this pack of white t-shirts for Jude to wear in the warm weather.  However, when they arrived they were a really weird shape, super short, and extra wide.  I went to return them and good old Amazon told me to just keep them, for free!  I love free stuff.  I washed them in hot water, and it helped the fit a bit.  Then, when I was dying terry cloth for another KCWC project, I decided to try my hand at tie dying stripes; after all, I had nothing to lose.  I was so happy with the results that I decided to borrow a style trick from Zara and add a black pocket and roll up the sleeves.

From a plain white tee, to a stylin' striped shirt, not a bad transformation ... if I do say so myself.  

Jude love's his "easter egg" shirt.  Although, the jury's still out on the tiny pocket.

I promise I am doing actual sewing this week, I just don't have anything else to share yet.  Soon...I promise.  Hooray for KCWC!  Have you seen all the amazing stuff in the flickr group?  Wow!

On a totally unrelated note, has anyone seen my baby?  He seems to have turned into a big boy over night.  

Happy Sewing!
