Materials
A cotton jumper, scraps of knit fabric, wonder under (whatever it is proper name is), thread, Google images haha
What was your inspiration?
This was supposed to be a B'Day pressie for one of my friend's kids, but the jumper was a bit small for him. When I asked his mum which Mr Men character represents her son the best, she said Mr Tickle :) I made him a Mr Tickle T-Shirt instead :)
What are you most proud of?
How totally awesome it looks! I made eyes and mouth using a zigzag stitch, on the buttonhole setting :) It worked out pretty sweet. Well, maybe a couple of years later I will think it is rather lame, but for now I am very proud of it :)
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
This fake embroidery did not work on a t-shirt. I tried to make a Mr Happy tee for him, and my machine literally ripped him... Thicker fabric worked much better.
