Looks more like a linebacker than a outfielder doesn’t he? |
1. Use your seam ripper to remove the sleeves from both tees.
Pulling on the threads will make this part go much faster.

**I highly suggest practicing with your paint pen on scrap fabric before going straight to the tee!**
I looked everywhere for the new Sharpie Stained pens. They would have probably been easier, but no luck finding one around here. Short choppy strokes worked best for the actual paint pen, but you have to keep pulling off the fuzz that gathers on the tip if you want a smooth line.
If you’re really wild and crazy you might even want to add some pinstripes!
Don’t forget to add a name and number on the back. Then head out and cheer on your team!

So cute!! And also that picture of your son TOTALLY cracked me up – I love vaguely stunned baby pictures. AWESOME!
Really cool idea with the shirts too – you did a great job with this!!!
Boy sewing is an adventure but I’m starting to really enjoy it – it’s really all in the details, and your shirt definitely speaks to that!! Great job and have fun with the boy stuff!!

Two shirts in one project! Awesome! The stripes were really fun, and the picture of your son is just too cute.

both your kids are adorable. I haven’t tried freezer paper stencils yet, but this makes me want to give it a shot. My kids love things with their names on them!

Super cute. Not a huge baseball fan, but I have some friends with kiddos that are. Would make great gifts! [email protected]

2 for one – what could be better for this mama of twins!!!! And hubs wants the boys to play baseball sooooooo badly (they are only 17 months old – he has a while to wait) maybe this will appease him for the present ;o) [email protected]

another great idea is if big brother or sister has an old jersey, use this instead of a basic knit shirt. i have made one for my daughter to support her big brother (complete with hand stitching his number to the front)… good upcycle project too!

…but make sure to use one of Melissa’s Blank Slate Tshirt patterns for that jersey remake 🙂

Hubby is a big sports fan, of any sport. Need to make the kiddos some shirts, he would just die! Thanks for the help!
