Kai is a little addicted to the game Clash of Clans.  It is on Brian’s phone, so he doesn’t get to play it too often.

I guess you could say that Brian AND Kai are playing the game.  It is constantly playing, so when Brian is at work he checks on it and tells Kai how the game is progressing when they get home.

Yes, my guys love playing games.

So…Kai wanted me to make him a Clash of Clans shirt.  He asked often for it.  At first I was thinking that it would be hard to cut something out of my Silhouette machine that would look decent.  Then I remembered that I purchased some  Transfer Artist Paper several months ago.  You print a mirror image onto it with a color printer and then iron it on.

At first he wanted a Wall Breaker on his shirt.  Um…no.  Skeleton carrying a bomb??  I don’t think so, son.  I told him I would do the logo with the shield, as that was fairly benign.

Yes, this is totally copyright infringement…or something.  I am a bad person, but good mom (FYI…when I searched for t-shirts I saw a whole lotta copyright infringement of people selling shirts with the logo and characters on them, so at least I’m not sellin’ it!).

Here is what it looks like printed out:

Here it is on the shirt:

I ironed it too long, so I had a hard time getting the paper backing off and it wasn’t smooth anymore.  Maybe reading the directions before ironing would be a good thing!  It says 20-25 seconds, and I did more like twice that at least.

I also made him a pair of sweat pants.  He really, really likes comfy clothes.  This is a deep wine color, and I used an Ottobre pattern that I lengthened a bit.  I also added front pockets to it, as well.    The shirt is an Ottobre pattern, too.

He wants more sweat pants, so I shall be making him a few more outfits.  I made the pants extra long so they fit him in the Fall again.  Our kids seem to grow like weeds over the summer!  Must be all that fresh air that they get.

Just a reminder that voting for Challenge Create: Adult Edition is up today for the refashion week.  Go and check out the other contestants, as everyone did a great job!

I have next week’s outfit all done, and just need pictures.  I am working on the last week’s challenge which is just something from your stash, which will be fairly easy since ALL of my sewing right now is from my stash!

In other sewing news, the Spring Top Sewalong starts on Monday, so I want to get a few new Spring tops done for when the weather warms up.  Plus they are nice to wear under cardigans in the winter, too.

So much sewing…so little time before springtime yard work cleanup starts!
