The current challenge at Bitten By The Bug 2 (BBTB2) is Star Wars or Stars. I purchased some really cool Star Wars SVGs and had great plans to use them, but then this happened...
I bought this cute sweater on clearance at Walmart; wore it once and dripped something on it; right smack in the middle of it. My first thought was that I'd toss it. It was $7 so I'm not out a lot of money, but then...
I watched a tv show and one of the characters had a gray sweater with black stars on it. Ding, ding, ding!!!
Thank goodness I didn't toss it! I bought some flock HTV a while ago from Craft HTV and hadn't used it yet. I decided to use it for this updo and so glad that I did.
I used the star from Basic Shapes and cut out six of them. After peeling the excess between the stars, I knew I didn't want to waste any of it so I used a punch to create smaller stars!
Here's the after...for a little more than $10, I have a super cute customized sweater!
I love that overall design. What a great way to save a sweater and I will have to remember that when disaster hits one of my tops.
ReplyDeleteTerrific way to cover up an oops and upscale it at the same time.

What a fabulous way to "save" your sweater. It is even more fun than the original. Love it!
ReplyDeleteoh Dorlene, I love a good upgrade! you made your oops shirt even better! I have not used the flocked but I think it is perfect for this project.
