I scheduled my 5 year old boys to get Jake and the Neverland Pirates Makeovers at the Pirates League. They were going to get a wig and some face paint, but it didn't include an outfit. I wanted them to have the whole look, so I decided to make them vests that they could put on over their white tshirts that we were going to wear that day. I can't really sew (yet) so I wanted to make a no-sew vest. I found blue tshirts at Walmart (super cheap) and cut the shirts up the middle of the front and then cut off the sleeves. I found yellow ribbon from Michaels and attached it to the edges using Stitch Witch. All I had to do was iron it on. I first folded the ribbon and ironed it so that I would have a good seam down the middle, and then I just folded it over the edges of the shirt and ironed it on with Stitch Witch. It was pretty simple. I cut out 4 circles from yellow felt and attached them using the Tacky Spray that I got for my felt Mickey Head shirts. I was very happy with how the vests turned out and so were the boys!
