All my boys have something to wear on the fourth of July, including my youngest who will be turning one on the 5th. But my daughter needed a tee shirt. I saw a really creative blog, I am following the person..., where the wonderful women made flags on the tee shirts. so i did a very similar thing. I didn't use any paint because i didn't have any. But i used red fabric and blue on top of a white tee shirt she had in her closet.
Then I cut out strips of red and blue fabric, I used stuff that doesn't fray. spandex and jersey knit.
Then I ruffled the fabric on my machine.

After that I played for 15 min trying different ways I could position the fabric on the tee shirt. My daughter wanted a heart shape. So I sewed it into a heart shape, and made the other streamers.

She likes it. How about you?  HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!!

Pour 1/2 cup of sugar in the second jar and stir to mix. Leave the third jar with plain fresh water. (Notice the salt in ours didn't fully dissolve but was still more dense then the others.) Step two: Pour 1/2 a cup of vegetable oil into ea
