• Ecru Sweatshirt

• 7 pieces of coordinating fabric 1/6yd. each or 7 fat quarters

• 2 1/3 yds. fusible web

• 2 1/3 oz glitter fabric paint - copper

• 1 skein DMC floss: #3740

• 1 pack 1/2” - 5/8” multi color buttons

• 1 hand sewing needle

• Ruler

• Pencil

• Cardboard or template plastic

• Using a ruler find the front center of the sweatshirt.
  Now draw a vertical line down the front of the sweatshirt.

• Cut off ribbing at collar, cuff and bottom of the sweatshirt.

• Cut fusible web into 14 six inch pieces. Iron the fusible web onto the wrong side
  of each piece of fabric. It is not necessary to completely cover the fabric pieces.

• Using cardboard or template plastic, make one template for each of the leaf,
  acorn & pumpkin designs designs given.

• With the templates, trace the leaf, acorn & pumpkin designs onto the
  fusible web side of the fabric.

• The sample given used leaf #1 around the neck, leaves #2 & #3 down
  the center and leaf #4 around the bottom.

• Now iron the cut shapes onto the sweatshirt, refer to manufacture directions on the fusible web. Use the photo to help with placement of the leaves. Hint: Be sure to overlap the leaves.

• Using fabric paint, draw a line around all shapes to seal the edges.
  Be sure to create a wider line (about 1/4”) around all outside edges.

• After the paint has totally dried cut the center of the outside line, leaving about an 1/8” of fabric paint. Hint: Avoid cutting all the way to the leaf shape; this could cause fraying.

• Turn the cuffs up approximately 3/4” twice. Sew on the buttons using DMC floss.
