last year, i had the absolute pleasure of meeting and befriending uber cool and talented fashionista amy tan when she came to a couple of my classes at sweetpeas!
yesterday i got to go to HER class at sweetpeas and learn to make my own reverse applique embroidered tee - i LOOOOVE her tshirts and it was so very enjoyable to take a class and learn such a cool technique - i have so many ideas buzzing around for baby onsies, love declaration tshirts for mick, funking up ivy's clothes - ooh la!
i really loved the bird stencils amy had for everyone to use, but being the rebel non-conformist that i am, i had to make up my own design, and you know i am all about the peace symbol!
(i promise my kid is not picking her nose in this picture. she was scratching at the wrong moment!!) on the right is my cute pocket sized lindsy who is becoming quite the crafter lately and i am very proud of her! i wish i had a pic of her awesome finished shirt. thanks amy for such a cool class! you can check out amy's blog (where i stole these pictures from) HERE to see some of the other awesome shirts made in class.













Great class it looks like, great fun!
