The first is black:
As usual, I used Jalie 2918 with a slightly narrower neckband, and the fabric is the same 12oz cotton spandex blend from Nick of Time Textiles that I was using last year.
My husband thought this was really funny! I used tan heat transfer vinyl for this one.
As usual, I twin-needled the hem:
The second one is blue, with white heat transfer vinyl:

He had requested this saying on a shirt sometime last year, so he was very happy with this shirt too!
I've made these shirts so many times now that I don't really have much I can say about them! Joshua says that the shirts I make for him are by far the most comfortable that he owns, so there will probably be even more in the future.

Obviously it's impossible to tell through a monitor, but that fabric looks like some legit t-shirt fabric that softens to that second-skin kind of feeling. It took me years to wear down my favorite tee that way, haha!
ReplyDeleteThe black material is! It's perfectly soft and comfortable! The blue is a little stiffer, so it still takes some time to wear in.
DeleteI laughed when I saw that first T-shirt! The two of them look really great!
ReplyDeleteThank you! He really enjoys pointing out the gross parts of plumbing to people- this was perfect for him. ;-)
