“Life is trying things to see if they work.”
-Ray Bradbury
This shirt and post are the perfect examples of Ray Bradbury’s quote. When I started out redesigning this huge shirt,
I wasn’t really sure where I was going with it. I knew it needed to be smaller. But other than that, it was just trying things to see if they worked.
I love how the sleeves turned out, but that only happened after several different attempts at sleeve treatments.
Not to mention, I tried an animated GIF to see if it would work.
It did.
SAH-WHEAT!!!!

If you’re interested in learning how to make an animated GIF, go to gickr.com. My funny blogging friend Rarasaur turned me on to it. It’s SUPER fun and easy to do.
Now on to redesigning this huge polka dot shirt.
Right sides together, pin and sew the sleeves back into the armhole.
Now, excuse me while I go find that ruggedly handsome contractor husband of mine. He needs to take me out to dinner in my new shirt.
