DIY Reversible Star Wars Comforter

My son recently decided that he wanted to have a Star Wars bed. When looking for bedding I found that any really cool Star Wars bedding was only available in Twin. I decided to look at our local craft store and found this amazingly soft fleece fabric featuring retro Star Wars characters. I fell in love with it. I goggled the size of a Full Size bed (54"X75") and got enough fabric to have a little bit extra to deal with any uneven edges. On another trip I ended up finding another really neat piece of Star Wars fleece with all the ships and got the same amount. I sewed the two pieces wrong sizes together and then used Satin Blanket Binding to sew around all four edges. Since I used several coupons to buy the fabric it ended up only costing me about $30, a lot less then store bought ones that are not anywhere as cool!

Bleach Shirts

My son is obsessed with the show Octonauts but you can't find the anything to buy in the store because its based in the UK. My husband got the great idea to make him a shirt using a bleach technique. He printed out the picture he wanted using freezer paper. Cut it out the image so that it was revered and the image was the only part of the shirt showing. He then ironed it onto the shirt. Using bleach in a spray bottle he sprayed the image. Once you remove the freezer paper, you can see that the areas you bleached are a different color then the rest of the shirt. Step 1: Print our image you want Step 2: Cut out the image, leaving the outline Step 3: Iron on to shirt Step 4: Using bleach in a spray bottle, spray the area of the shirt showing, inside the outline Step 5: Peel of freezer paper Step 6: Rinse and let dry It came out great!
