The No Sew Way To Go

OK, I  have been neglecting the Blog and after PW's post about blogging, I have GUILT.  So I will try my hardest to be blogging on a daily basis an nourish my blog instead of letting it wilt, as usual.

I do not sew MUCH, just the occasional hem or experiment and a pillow or two. So, when I see something that is NO SEW and I think I can do it, I am lovin' it! I saw a tutorial here for a NO SEW applique....AND I LOVE APPLIQUE'S! So here is my take on it...



Here's whatcha need. An iron of Course and

1. Some SHARP scissors      
2. Fusible webbing                
3. Three coordinating fabrics 



 I started by printing off a picture of what I wanted to applique to the shirt(a pear).  I just typed it into Google images and picked the one I wanted.


Then I cut it out and placed it.  I also cut off the stem and leaf separate to use 3 different coordinating materials.



Next you just follow the directions on the back of the fusible webbing package.


One piece at a time.





Next I took the same 3 fabrics and made a coordinating fabric flower which my friend Sarah sells for dirt cheap on her Etsy shop check it out!!



There you have it! This whole project took me about 30-40 minutes and it was fun!



Kenners agreed!!!

I will be buying up some 3$ long sleeve shirts and getting busy for winter, can't wait to make more : )
