I love the shirt! Thinking about it, the tiny bucket & footprints would
make it even more perfect.

Thanks! This has taken on a life of its own. I really
think I'm going to have to start a new project. I really
like Joanne's idea of having the footprints trail around to
the back of the shirt. ;-)

Glad you like it. So often we focus on the front, forgetting that we
live in a 3-dimensional world, and that people see us coming and going.
We present a neatly decorated front, and a sterile, boring back view,
so I thought it would be fun to treat the shirt as a round object and to
continue the theme around to the back, providing some additional
interest. Dresses are sometimes designed this way, but blouses and
shirts rarely are. I think it will be a fun project, and a very
attractive result.

That's very true, shirt back are mostly plain vanilla. I
don't know why I never thought of decorating the backs
before now, thanks for the idea.

Yes, and don't forget the child holding a sand shovel.
BTW, are the lighthouse designs for sale? DDIL has a birthday soon and she
loves lighthouses, I think just one on a shirt for her would be enough.
