Happy halloween! For all my REALLY last-minute peeps, here’s a quick hint on how to use the technique from the Back in Action T-shirt design (project #101 from Generation T: Beyond Fashion) to make the spider web design I wore to the Michaels craft store grand opening.
Some hints: 1) Cut slits (about 1/2″ to 1″ apart) resembling the pattern shown below in the diagram. 2) Note the shorter slits for the outermost cuts to prevent big gaps on the outside of your spider web. 3) Loop from the outer slits in to the center. 4) Stitch or safety pin loops at the center (stitches are better in this version because there’s less bulk).

Megan, that’s so cool!!! You know what else would be cool? If you put that design on the front of the shirt, and then pinned on a spider brooch.
