Create an adorable children's t-shirt with a monster pocket that holds a small monster stuffed animal. Lisa explains how to create the pocket and shares ideas for adding pockets to other appliqué designs.
Add some fun to the appliqué you made in Lesson 4 by bringing a stuffed monster to life. You'll be amazed at how quickly and easily you can create this project, all done entirely in the hoop!
