Western Shirt Ho!


I'm sure I mentioned before that I'm working on another shirt for the fella's upcoming birthday.  It's going well - I anticipate finishing it this weekend except for the snaps.  Just have to do the front bands, the collar and hems.





For some reason I couldn't get a picture without the red kind of flashing - it makes it hard to see the embroidery, but I used my machine for some swirlies that turned out really well!  

I got some black and white pearlized snaps at Hancock, but he really wanted red, so I looked on Etsy and found a seller with tons of western snaps in every color you can imagine - plus they were a really great price.  As per usual, I went a little crazy!  it's like the gingham buttons all over again!  But seriously, look at these!  how could I not!  I got a set of twelve in all of the colors here except for the green which is a mixed shade lot of 25!  woohoo!
