I saw this airplane sweater at gymboree this past spring, and fell in LOVE with it. However, it was 25$... and being frugal, I decided I could make it. (The one above is my version).
So here's how you do it:
1. Go to Walmart (or goodwill) and get a plain zip-up Sweater: $7.00
2. Take out some old fabric that you don't need. On a piece of Freezer Paper, draw a picture of the airplane. Then, using an X-acto knife, cut out the airplane. Iron it to the piece of fabric. Use fabric paints to paint it.
3. Cut the airplane out, and cut it in half. Then, use iron-on adhesive and attach it to both sides of the sweater.
4. Either hand sew (like I did), or use your sewing machine, to sew around the airplane. I used yellow embrodery floss, because I thought it looked cool.
5. Sew on a button
6. Show off your adorable kid. :)
