Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day to everyone, I hope you all spent it with that special man. I sure did, and it was a lot of fun. I surprised Daddy with a handmade tie shirt that matched my son's onesie, it was the cutest thing and everyone loved it! And since he is a WoW addict, I created a special World of Warcraft greeting card.
We spent Father's Day with his family at a restaurant in Dobb's Ferry. After we were done with them, we went to go visit my Dad and spent the entire evening with him.

Here is how I created these cute tees. I first picked out the fabric I wanted to use, drew out the tie size I wanted on cardstock, then cut out the ties and the fabric. I used fusible web to be able to draw and stick the fabric easier to the shirt. After ironing the fabric to the fusible web, I drew on the back side of the fabric which is now attached to the web with a paper backing. I then cut it out and ironed it to the shirt. For added durability, I hand stitched the outlinie of the ties. Over time, the edges of the appliqué may fray but this only complements the look of the original design, giving it uniqueness.
