My sisters visit was a whirlwind. We had a fabulous time, and I really wish that my sisters lived closer.   How perfect that would be.  We didn't do much knitting but did manage a craft with the girls.
Back in October, I needed a peace shirt for a party.  Decided to investigate that freezer paper craft that I had seen on so many blogs.  Have you all done it?  Seen it?  

When I first started reading craft blogs, it seemed like everyone was doing it.  I thought wow, I can craft with the best of them, but this is where I draw the line.  I am not putting my shirts into the freezer.  I kid you not.  That is what I thought.  That you paint on the shirt, and then do something with the freezer. The shirt, the paint, the freezer.  I really had no idea what they were talking about!
Anyhow, my sister borrowed that shirt and decided she would like to make them.
We  bought t-shirts on sale at Old Navy and got busy.
My niece, Kelli, made the ice cream cone.  Libby made the snail.
I made the tree.
And using the inspiration from the above peace sign t-shirt, Lisa made two peace shirts.  Except the girls told us that my peace sign was wrong.  That this was what the peace sign looked like.  Huh?  Isn't that a mercedes sign?  Not what she had in mind.  She will be repairing those!

Really.  This is such a fun craft for the kids. Or you. And you do not have to put your shirts into the freezer.  I promise. :)
