Make This DIY Police Officer Shirt in Under an Hour – Perfect for Dress-Up or Gifting
I came across this adorable “Be a Police Officer” T-shirt appliqué pattern, and I just had to share it with you all. I spent some time reviewing the tutorial and really loved how it turned out — it’s fun, creative, and honestly such a sweet way to celebrate our everyday heroes.
The police force has always had a special place in my life. I have a lot of respect and appreciation for the work they do, especially those on the frontlines who show up every day for our communities. Whether it’s someone I know personally or just seeing the work they do in my neighborhood, it’s something I don’t take for granted.
That’s probably why this project stood out to me. It’s more than just a cute craft — it’s a little way to show some love and recognition. If you’ve got kids who look up to police officers or you’re just looking for a unique way to talk about community helpers through crafting, this is such a great idea.
The tutorial uses Thermoweb’s Sparkle Paste and stencils, which give it this really cool, glittery finish that kids will love. And don’t worry — it’s beginner-friendly and walks you through all the steps. You could totally whip one of these up for dress-up, school events, or just a thoughtful handmade gift.

Oh, would I LOVE to have this book in my library. I have been collecting wool and felt for some time now and just need some original ideas.
Thanks for the opportunity,

Oops! I forgot to tell you that Christmas is my favorite time for crafting! I always go a little crazy decorating and sewing (mostly quilts) for my loved ones.
Thanks again for allowing me to put my name in the hat!

I love to craft for Christmas the most and do 4 or 5 local craft shows every year. I have been doing this for 30 years as a hobby and it’s what keeps me going outside work. I specialize in angels of all kinds. When I retire I plan to do alot more with my crafts and really get “out there”. This book looks like one I would LOVE to have. I have FA LA LA Felt.
Christmas is the the busiest craft time of the year for most of us I’ll bet.
This looks like a cute book. I have several books by these authors and all are great. Will be a great addition to the rest of my felt craft books!
