Upcycle old tee shirts into art textiles

Using some of your old tee shirts you no longer wear but can’t bear to give up, we’ll design and,

with a reverse appliqué method, make at least one panel for the wall or as a start to a garment

or a throw.

Materials and supplies:

- 4 or more tee shirts in several colors. Cotton is best but some mixed fiber is ok. Avoid

polyester, nylon, or any woven fabric. The shirts do not need to be in pristine condition. Stains

and holes can be worked around.

- Sewing machine with threads and needles. Hand sewing works too, just takes longer.

- Lots of straight pins

- Good fabric shears and small sharp scissors.
