corsage tees please

This morning I was on Studio 5 with Brooke Walker talking about the fabulous fashion trend of having pretty handmade fabric flowers and ruffles on simple tees. I made 4 different examples with some awesome techniques.
I totally forgot to grab jeans when I left my house this morning so I made a quick detour to my sister's house. (Camille always saves the day.) Then she curled my hair even and sent me on my way. I will have to share the different ideas here because I think you will absolutely love them! Plus, they're super easy.
Thanks to Bethany and Kit for watching my sweet kiddos too.
If you are local to Utah County you should come to the Spark Soiree tonight at Dear Lizzie in Alpine from 7-9 or there will be a live U-Stream chat so check out the Spark blog at 7:45 pm. (mountain standard time)
Also, my little neice was born and is so precious she was named after my great great grandma, Taimi. (tymee) I'll post pictures next!

Yes Please show us how to make those cute shirts! I went to Studio 5 website to see if I could find the clip but it wasn't there. Please share!

Heather said...

Very creative shirts...they are too cute! I have a question....you said you use a die cutting machine for cutting the flowers out....which machine do you use? I've tried cutting fabric with bonding material ironed on the back out of my Cricut and it did not work too well. It didn't like the detailed cuts. I would love ideas for cutting fabric out with my Cricut. Thanks

I have been wanting to know how to make these too. I make clutch style purses and want to embellish them with a small flower. These would be perfect.
