Appliqued Sweatshirt Revival



Even though it is the new year, I want to show you something that is old and new:  an appliqued sweatshirt!  How many millions did we all make back in the 90's?  My friend Joani saw the bottom photo of a shirt with a plaid state....Alabama?  (you would think by this time I would know my states!)  I will try to find the blog she saw it on.  Anyway, she had a piece of patchwork leftover from something, and stitched it on the grey shirt (middle shot).  So cute!  I bought a faded red color sweatshirt, and did a flannel log cabin design, with a heart about where our cabin is.  Sweatshirts are hard to find nowadays...  Are we both still living in the past, or are we on the cutting edge of a revival?  Jerilynn

  1. How about the back of a chambray/jeans shirt? I'm gonna start looking for one for our next project week-end and will make my own plaid block in readiness :>)
