T Shirt Applique

Did you know that you can create a really cool looking t shirt by adding a simple applique.  I really love to do this for seasonal holidays like Christmas and Easter!

What you need
Plain coloured t-shirt.
Applique Template - Find an image that you like. There are loads of applique templates available for purchase if you wanted to try that. I personally love the designs from http://angelleadesigns.com/
Fabric for the applique
Vliseofix
Iron

What's next-
Get your template and trace it onto the paper side of the vliseofix. Roughly cut out the shape of vliseofix.  Iron onto the fabric you have chosen for the applique. Be careful to put the glue side down onto the wrong side of the fabric. Now cut the image out along the pencil line. Peel of the paper. Now you have a mirror image of the template.
Place the applique onto the t-shirt. Glue side down. Iron onto t-shirt.

Your almost done!
You can blanket stitch around the applique using coloured thread. You could also stitch the applique down using a sewing machine. There are loads of stitches available these days on a sewing machine, you choose!

Here's something I whipped up for a sports carnival! Go Kangaroos!
