Doilies are H-O-T right now! They are popping up all over the place…..home decor, decorations, and now…t-shirts!
This shirt is easy to make (I did it by hand, but would be even easier with a sewing machine!) and looks super cute!
Shirt
Doily or crocheted trim (for smaller inserts)
thread
scissors
Open a side seam using seam ripper or side seam. Only go up as high as you want your insert to go.
Lay doily under opened seam and pin where you want the insert to start showing.
Open ripped seam to expose doily underneath.
Cut shirt along opening fold.
Turn shirt inside out and trim doily to slightly larger than opening.
I put a small rolled hem at the edges of the opening, but it’s not necessary since t-shirt material won’t fray.
Stitch doily to shirt and voila!

What a creative way to jazz up a t-shirt.
