Change up the Tee – blog tour day 10

July 13, 2018

I decided to participate in another blog tour by Made for Little Gents, and this time it was about making more than just a basic t-shirt for boys.

The blog tour was sponsored by GYCT Designs, and they offered the blog tour participants the Primary Tee.  There is a giveaway and sale included!  The sale is running from July 2-July 15, and customers can save $2 using code “SEWBLUE” off of the Primary Tee pattern.

The shirt was too small for my teenager, so I did not use it for the tour.  I used instead the Draper from Wardrobe by Me (affiliate link – see disclosure policy on sidebar), which is becoming a staple for my boy.

I made him a size M (plenty long for his height (5’11” this week)).

To “change up the t-shirt”, I added a HTV applique I drew.  To have a different look, I placed it along the side seam instead of in the center of the shirt.  It’s a dragon snake (made up mythical creature of sorts that looks cool). 😉

The fabric for the shirt is from Nature’s Fabrics and is bamboo jersey spandex (red) and bamboo jersey (black).

I was going to get a little more creative…but I just ran out of time.  Story of my life lately!


Visit the tour for all the fun makes for boys!
