 I spotted a fraying numbered sweatshirt somewhere and instantly thought that this would be the easiest sporty related thing ever. So unique to pair with a skirt or some heels that you are bound to feel stylish. Quick! If you don't like it later, seam rip off the letters and be on your way.

Supplies:
fabric
interfacing - if your fabric is thinner and you have a dark sweatshirt or tee that you are sewing it onto
pins
scissors
thin paper and pencil
ruler
sewing machine
thread

Instructions:

1. Print off or draw letter onto piece of paper. Then pin it to fabric layered over interfacing.
