Arf!

I saw this tutorial and bookmarked it because I knew I wanted to try it someday.  After a mix up at school where my daughter told her teacher I made a shirt for her that was store bought, I finally got to try it.  You see, she has this cute t-shirt with a black and white kitty picture and the kitty is wearing hot pink shoes and a tiara.  Bless her heart for giving me credit for it and thinking that was within my ability.  :-)  Anyway, she came home asking if I'd make one with a boston terrier for her teacher.  She seemed very disappointed to find out that I didn't make it for her, so I did what any crafty mom would do...I said SURE! 

So here it is:

OMG, cute, right?!? 



For the screen I used a thrift store embroidery hoop and sheer curtain, $4.50 for ink with coupon and $5 for the shirt, so for around $11 we have a nice end of year gift for her teacher.  I'm still deciding whether to add bling to him.  The screening process wasn't perfect, there was touch up to be done, but all in all it was fun and I'm very pleased with the results.

ps.  The teacher has a boston terrier.
