Trendy, fun fashion often starts with a great T-Shirt. Show 1604 is full of T-shirt variations for both kids and adults.
Londa Rohlfing starts with a show and tell of feminine, artsy tops that include elements from menswear. Her creations are truly one of a kind with eclectic accents.
You’ll see garments that have been chopped and slashed, then mixed and matched to create new combinations. She uses knits and woven mixed together, then adds textural accents to top it all off. Her garments have some added spice on the back side. It's fun to decorate the back of garments and carry the theme form front to back. This is one of my favorite techniques to use for embroidered garments. After all, people see you coming as well as going!
Londa's featured technique is simple yarn couching with the “N” foot. She also shows the multi-hole cording foot, which happens to be one of my personal favorites. This segment is a great example of ways to add artistic effects to seemingly ordinary garment styles. You'll find instructions for her tops HERE.
There are many ways to add couching and lots of accessories for the task. I've also demonstrated this technique in the past. CLICK HERE to learn about a few more couching options.

In the second half of the show Emily Thompson makes custom iron-on vinyl decals with the Brother ScanNCut.
Watch as she scans in lettering and cuts iron-on flocked material. Emily's complete instructions are found HERE. This material comes in a package of assorted colors and is available from your local Brother dealer. I've used this particular material and love how it gives a soft, velvety look to the cut out design. For her second shirt she selected a transfer film that's thin and flexible. You'll see Emily "weeding" away the excess vinyl with a wooden pick. CLICK HERE to see a weeding tool designed by Brother specifically for this process.
The ScanNCut digital cutting machines opens up a world of crafting possibilities! Visit the Brother Crafts USA You Tube channel for more instructions and inspirational idea for the Brother ScanNCut machines.
