Alabama Chanin Basic Top

Another basic T-Shirt completed.  This time with negative reverse applique and bugle beads running stitch.  Love the shimmer of the bugle beads.  Their 8mm Apple / Toho beads. Stitched with 2 strands of red Coats Dual Duty Plus.  Template Anna's Garden.

The neckline is stitched with Cretan stitch.  Cut this T-shirt from a larger sized one.




Love how the applique fabric naturally roll after washing

  1. Beautiful! I almost used beads on the project I'm working now (also in red, coincidentally!) and you're making me wish I had done! Of course this technique is on my list too :-)
