#100itemcraftstashchallenge: Project 38

Remember the tie tee I made for PGS for Project 33? Well, it's one of his favorite pieces of clothing and he wants to put it on as soon as it's clean again. So I bought another white tee for him, this time I bought a 3T short sleeve Garanimals tee from Walmart for $3.88. I also made a minor variation to the tee: interchangeable ties! Since it's one tee and two ties, I counted it as one project this time.

I used some scrap white suedecloth fabric to reinforce the snaps and placed two snaps on the tee and two on each tie. One tie was made from scrap fabric of the pirate diaper I made for PGS (that will be in next week's post!) and the other was from some scrap robot fabric and some scrap white fabric. The robots are the side of the tie visible to the world and the white is the side with the snaps.

The ties are two pieces of fabric cut in the tie shape. Put the snaps on the back piece and then pin the tie pieces right sides together. Make sure to leave an open space to turn the ties right side out. Press the fabric and topstitch the tie. Voila! A snap on tie for interchangeable tie fun!
