Help.

I need to make Jack my nephew something for his 3rd birthday on monday 8-[ All I've thought of so far is bunting with his name on it. I made him a pen roll for xmas and he already has a balloon ball of course :lol:
And Maya turns 15 in 2 weeks so I need ideas on what to make her 8-)

I got a plain t-shirt from Cotton On and appliqued a giant 3 on it for a 3 year old boy last year - his mum said he wore it to death :)

cool ideas guys. I think I did him a T last birthday, with a tie appliqued on it. I want maximum impact, minimum work for the wee dudes gift :lol: Not really sure if they appreciate all the cool stuff I've made their sprogs all these years!

Thats a good idea about the fabric boxes, hmmmm not sure she'd like that though!

Might be something on there. Otherwise quite a nice way to waste time looking at handmade projects :D
