Hearts or Hannah or Hannah's Hearts. After Hannah saw Lizzie's L she declared that she needed an H on a shirt. She looked and looked and looked in my fabric stash and found some red heart fabric. It's actually leftover scraps from a Valentine's shirt that I made her and Lizzie in 2005. I'll see if I can find Hannah's shirt and photograph it. It was one of the very first things I ever made. Anyway, after she found the heart fabric we needed a shirt. Last week when we were in Target, she picked out a hot pink shirt. A light pink wouldn't do. It had to be the hot pink. :-) Hannah's very particular about her pink these days. I'm quite surprised but I think it looks pretty good together.
Lesson learned: On stretchy fabrics, a stabilizer really needs to be used when do an applique. I started without it and then ripped the stitches out. Much better now! And, next time I'm going to round the corners of my letters and see if I like that better.

It looks good! Not the crazy combination of fabrics I was expecting. I had in mind something like plaid on a totally unrelated print like the shirt and shorts combination my daughter dressed herself in when she was about Hannah's age.
Super cute shirt!
HANNAH LOVES HER SHIRT. IS THERE ANOTHER COLOR BESIDES PINK?
