Whoa…. it’s been like over 2 months since my last post…
{I think I’m over my creative block}
Well…at least I made something today!!
My Jack Jack has a shirt to wear on his first day of kindergarten come Wednesday. Just look at that sweet little smile… it sure warms a mummy’s heart. :)
I have had this idea in my head for about 4 months or so. Today after I put Finn down for his nap, a little voice whispered in my head, “Enough already. Get off your arse and make Jack his shirt for school.”
I had a white pair of pajama pants that I never wear and decided to repurpose them for Jack’s project. Em helped me pick out the blue hue for the stamps. I stamped, cut, and ironed away adorning the plain little yellow shirt that had been sitting, waiting for so long. Then, I framed the patch with a long straight stitch and a shortened zig zag stitch for a bit of added detail.
So, thank you Janette for the whisper. You are golden and I can’t wait for that sweet baby girl to get here!
Linking up here for some more crafty inspiration:

I love that! I especially love the frame... something so simple and everyday, and it just adds so much to the shirt! I didn't even realize what stitches they were until I read it! Thanks so much for linking up!
MY GIRL IS BACK!!!! YOU BETTER BE!!! I've missed you sOOO much!! Love the shirt!! So cute and memorable! I still can't believe school starts soo soon there!!
XOXO!!
Can't wait to hear how his first day goes!
I love this idea! I need to do this for my son when he goes to mother's day out this year! Plus sooo many people argue with me that Aubrey is NOT a boys name.. when in fact it is in the "boys" section of all baby name books.. and when I tell them this, they ask how to spell it (as if that reallly makes a differnece)... Maybe this would help : ) Thanks for linking up to Craft and Tell!
