i am thrilled by the responses i have received over the past few days from people wanting to order clothes for their, or their friend's little ones! it is exciting, and honestly a little overwhelming. BUT i am motivated and excited to keep threading that needle and creating crafty/wearable items. the other day my brother called and left a message questioning the durability of the garments....the nerve! just kidding...i found it quite a valid inquisition. while it is safe to throw the shirts in a gentle wash cycle, i would advise air drying them, as a way to lengthen the life-span of the shirt. i bought some fusible web today at the sewing store, and i am going to try ironing the felt, web, and fabric together prior to sewing so as to enhance the durability. i'll let you know how this experiment turns out. i'm also always open to ideas about creatures, animals, shapes to try out... word 'em up.
