Tutorial: Splatter painted and stenciled t-shirt refashion for kids and tweens

Amy from Sews n Bows shows how she refashioned a plain white t-shirt into this cool top for her tween daughter. She made the shirt more fitted, accenting the new seams with contrast zig zag stitching. On the front of the shirt, she used spray fabric paint and stencils to create an awesome splatter painted, stenciled design. It’s a fun project you can make together with your child or tween. Go to Sews n Bows for the tutorial.
