Make a Spotty Tshirt for Children in Need

'Mummy, have I got something spotty to wear? We can wear something spotty to school on Friday for Children in Need'
For a child whose mother is ever so slightly obsessed with polka dots, Roo has a grand total of no spotty clothes whatsoever! Not a problem, says I, you have some white tshirts we can customise. And then I completely forgot about it.

Until this evening when Roo reminded me that he needed something spotty to wear to school. Tomorrow.

Here's what I did...


How to make a Spotty Tshirt for Children in Need in less than 15 minutes because you completely forgot to do it earlier in the week....

You will need

1 tshirt
a piece of fusible webbing (Bondaweb or similar)
scraps of coloured fabric
something round to use as a template (I used one of those dosing cups that come with EVERY bottle of washing liquid I buy...)
Scissors
Iron



First draw some circles on the paper side of the fusible webbing and cut roughly around them.


Place it, sticky side down, on your fabric and iron in place.




Cut out your circles.




Position your circles onto your tshirt until you are happy with the arrangement





Peel of the backing paper and iron the fabric circles to your tshirt





Put tshirt on and wear with pride whilst helping to raise money for Children in Need!



I do apologise that this is a bit last minute but, you know, that's just how it happens sometimes...

    1. I have no problem with onsies for kids, they're kinda cute - it's when the teachers wear them too you gotta worry... ;-)
