My granddaughter Mae was here visiting over the weekend,

and I decided to make her a shirt for the 4th of July.  

My original plan was to make it a Stars and Stripes Forever 

shirt, but my daughter suggested something simpler.

Something she can wear for a little longer than a day.

Mae’s Star Shirt for the 4th of July…

• I purchased a plain white shirt from Walmart for under $4.
• I measured the area of the shirt that I wanted the design. 
• I used StyleTechCraft’s Heat Transfer Vinyl*, it is really easy to weed and use. 
• I cut the vinyl stars using a Silhouette Cameo Electronic Die Cutting Machine*, but you could also use metal dies to cut the vinyl.  
• Place the cut vinyl onto the shirt shiny side up.  
• Position the design on your shirt. Cover the shirt with a pressing cloth before pressing.
• Use an iron or a heat press* to apply heat and pressure to the design, following the manufacturer’s instructions.
• Peel off the clear transfer tape.
• Turn the shirt inside out and iron the inside of the shirt.

I was happy with how the shirt turned out, and so was Mae.  

She decided she didn’t want to take it off.
