June 1, 200917 yr omg Alexis, that shirt is amazing!! How did you do it?? Such a great job:D. I have the same question. :stunned: And it is absolutely amazing. It looks like one you'd buy on the Coldplay site.
June 1, 200917 yr Here's my shirt! The front.. The back.. I modeled the writing for 'now my feet wont touch the ground, after Chris's own handwritting in this letter... http://www.coldplay.com/newsdetail.php?id=150&page=0 that's awesome! i really like the blue. :)
June 2, 200917 yr Thanks guys! I actually had bought the blue one with all the butterflies from the Coldplay website. But, I really wasn't pleased with it. So... I was like why don't I make one, and wear it to my Coldplay show (which was last night in Darien Lake, NY)... So, I bought a shirt. Traced out 7 different sizes for the butterflies, from the cover of LeftRightLeftRightLeft... So, I made those, then i bought fabric. And, I traced out all the butterflies onto them,cut them out, arrange them how i wanted. and then I used like Steem A Seam, it's this thing that you can use to iron one fabric onto another. All in all, it took me like 10 hours or so to make that shirt because I am a perfectionist and had to have the butterflies perfect, or as close as I could get to perfect. As for the writing, fabric paint. Yeah, I wore it to my concert last night, and got some comments from some Oxfam people, and a couple Coldplayers that I met. Great night! :)
June 2, 200917 yr Oh and yeah, I loved that the last thing Chris sang at the concert was "now my feet won't touch the ground' from Lifeintechnicolor 2. I was like, oh how fitting. :)
June 2, 200917 yr The embellished tee-shirt I've added some fonts on the sleeves. The paint is drying. I had already taken a picture of the tee-shirt before painting the sleeves : I don't think I'll add anything else now on this tee-shirt. :laugh3:
June 2, 200917 yr Okay, no shirt today - I have to buy some news... I've painted my CD bag ;) *steals* Really great, Nicole! :stunned:

June 2, 200917 yr Oh, so you mean that - you want to steal mine and not the idea. But your birthday is later ... ;)And from where do you think you know that? :D And yes, stealing the idea wouldn't work for me at all, because I suck at this kind of things. You know that!
June 2, 200917 yr Yourself have said it to me your birthday :D Damn it. :dozey: Anyway, I'm really looking forward to what you make next. :)
June 3, 200917 yr Yay, my shirt's done! Turned out... okay. I still gotta get rid of the chalk marks on front (decided to put the butterfly on the back instead). And, ugh, you can see the cat hair on it. My kitty is in his spring shed. :S It's a bit like the shirt I made back in November but I've worn that one to shreds already. ;) I'm so excited I feel like I might explode! !!!
