Here is pair #2 from Dana’s fabulous pattern (#1 is over here).
This pair began it’s life without any detailing, then I added a three layer reverse appliqué in the shape of a freehand flower after some prodding by my husband to put my signature on them.
I did not get a picture of it. I loved it, but it was just too much. The great thing about this fabric is it goes with practically anything. That patch suddenly limited t-shirt options to those exactly matching the three bright colors in the patch. And guess what? Lu did not have a single shirt in any of those colors, and I did not feel like making any.
So, daydreaming in the car on our way to Sunriver I came up with the solution: Cut out a smaller version of the flower in the original black multi fabric and stitch it right over the top of the “too-much” flower . . . and . . .
viola! It’s back to being completely versatile while still having a little bit of something special.
