Atlanta Pit Bull Rally Today was the Atlanta Pit Bull Rally and my husband always volunteers. And I always make something for the raffle. This year tickets were $5.00 each and a jar is placed by the item and if you want that item you put your ticket in that jar. Well I made the shirt and donated it for the raffle. Hubby told me that my jar made $65.00 and the woman that won the shirt..........se her smiling face bought 10 tickets. Guess the odds were on her side. I got the design from Skeldale House and thought it would make a great shirt with three across. I put the words Pit Bull and Proud under the design and it really looked good. I hooped some heavy tearaway and sprayed it with spray adhesive. I layed a piece of batting on top of the hooped stabilizer and then sprayed it again and layed the shirt on top of that being real careful to center it . I used a gold thread and stitched the design which took close to an hour and half....it just seemed like it took a long time. This design from Skeldale House was a freebie and I want to thank the digitizer for it. I really had fun doing this shirt. Monies received go to offset the cost of the pavillion at the park. I think the winner looks happy don't you? Here is the link to last years rally and the shirts I did. |

Thank you for posting a photo of you (it is nice to put a face with a name) and I LOVED the way the sweatshirt turned out. I will have to try this! Thanks for posting it.
