Patterns, Techniques, Articles, Blogs, and other resources to learn how to sew
Adrianna from Crafterhours guest blogs in the Sew In Tune series at Boy, Oh Boy, Oh Boy! with a tutorial showing how to add some rock n roll to a plain tee. She does it by appliqueing a large guitar to the front of the shirt. And because her t-shirt was inspired by the classic album by Bruce Springsteen, she added some stripes and the words “Born in the USA” to the back. Go to her tutorial.
