Oozma Kappa T-Shirt

We took Jack to see Monsters University for his first trip to a movie theater! He loved every second of it and was seriously on the edge of his seat the entire time (mostly because he wasn’t heavy enough to hold it down in the back. lol) We’re huge fans of movies over here so it was kind of a big deal to take him. We really wanted the movie to be worthy of the event and Monsters University totally stepped up to the plate!

So, of course, I’m watching the movie and all I can think about is how I would go about making one of the monsters’ fraternity t-shirts for Jack (Yes, I think about crafting all the time…I know you all can relate). Making a Oozma Kappa t-shirt was the perfect opportunity to try out cutting wool felt with my lovely Silhouette!

Oozma Kappa T-Shirt

Materials:

T-shirt
Green & Yellow Wool Felt (I got mine at Jo-Ann’s)
Silhouette Sewable Fabric Interfacing
Oozma Kappa Studio File
Silhouette Machine (or just convert the file and use a pair of sharp scissors to cut by hand)

1. Following instructions found in the package, iron the fabric interfacing onto the back of two small pieces of wool felt. Trim and remove backing paper to reveal shiny interface.

2. Place felt pieces onto cutting mat, making sure they’re in the proper place to cut out two sets of the letters.

3. Cut felt with Silhouette set to Speed: 3, Thickness: 33, Blade: 10, Double Cut. (Thanks to Cutesy Crafts for the settings!)

4. One set at a time, iron the letters into place.

5. Zig-zag stitch around the yellow letters to keep the design in place and voila! You are now officially an Oozma Kappa parent! 🙂
