Take a gander at my new shirt! Here's a bullet-point overview of how I did it---
::I cut out the 60ish stars myself, using the star tracings in this book (it's such a cute book, and we're big Cath Kidston fans over here!) and appliqued them on to one of my very favorite white tees.
::I love combining fabric collections, so that's what I did for this project. I began with the basic color-scheme I was going for, and started stacking up fabrics until it worked. You'll see pieces from Loulouthi, Good Folks, and a tad bit of Annie's Farm Stand thrown in.
::I used some silvery-grey thread from our ample supply to do a running stitch around all of the stars.
::There you have it!
It was actually quite a bit of fun to make, and even more fun to wear. We took these pictures at a cute wooden fence beside Stogey's Coney Island in Joplin after we'd finished stuffing ourselves.
Happy Friday to all of you! xxx Achaia
Great idea, Achaia! You've got my wheels turning now.

Hi all, friend just sent me his sony x10 xperia cell phone bought in France to use while in France. We are leaving next week. But alas he did not send any instructions with it and I haven’t the foggiest idea how to use it. He is unavailable while traveling, so I can’t reach him. Just basically need it to make and receive phone calls.
