Steps for Making Custom T-Shirts

Video Transcript

"GRACE FRAGA: Hi, you're watching Expert Village and today we learned how to make a multi-dimensional T-shirt with my guest here Chantelle Tibbs from Wear Me Naked. So, Chantelle, just to summarize everything that we learned today, what are the steps to make a multi-dimensional T-shirt? CHANTELLE TIBBS: Well, make sure that it's going to have to be a multi-dimensional T-shirt. Maybe it's something you want to be one dimensional. If you want, assess everything that you can use to bring life to your T-shirts like glitter, other pieces of fabric, tight fabric, anything like that and think about your theme and make sure that your fabric matches your theme. Draw on the patches if you're using patches like we demonstrated today. Draw on the patches, if you want with fabric marker. If you want to paint over that, you can too. Make sure you that dry it before you cut it. Cut it and place it on the shirt before you start sewing, pick the color of thread that you want. It can be a basic thread like a black thread that compliments the black T-shirt or it can be something that pops like we used right here, bright green. And then when you're done, make sure everything is dry. Voila! You have it. And also the crossing of the two dimensions, the two dimensional, three dimensional. You'll have the paint on the shirt, anything you want and just make it come together. GRACE FRAGA: Great. Thank you so much, Chantelle for being on the show. CHANTELLE TIBBS: Thank you.
