Tips for sewing ‘ransom note’ style from old tshirts, a fun way to upcycle old tshirts.
When I was a kid, I loved cutting up magazine letters and pictures to make collage cards and art; this is an extension of that same idea! In the United States, free/promotional tshirts are given out by the dozens and they clog up thrift stores – ransom-note style projects also uses those up in a fresh new way! I save the smaller pieces of tshirt to make DIY patches or layered appliques and the larger tshirt chunks to make tshirt quilts with. While this post is focused specifically on cutting up old tshirt letters and sewing them back on – I also have posts with lots of inspiration for general applique for beginners as well as cutting up tshirts in general to upcycle them in different applique methods!
