About my design
by pyr4lis
A submission for the Threadless Loves Threadless competition. The idea is that you get a t-shirt with dual end uses. You can wear it till it gets worn out or stained and then you can follow the pattern and cut & sew your own stuffed dragon, all you will need is stuffing from any craft store.

The design has the dragon\'s top pieces on the front of the shirt & the belly pieces on the back. This style would be available in Orange Poppy for the guys and Burgundy for the girls.

I hope you all like it. =)

I wouldn't wear it but it's definately a really original idea. Better than making your own underwear out of your shirt! haha props

Thanks for the comments. I was working on it for almost 2 1/2 weeks and was sorta dissapointed when I saw the "underwear" shirt. But anyway..

About the wings... the top of the wings are on the front along with the rest of the dragon.. and the bottom of the wings are on the back of the shirt. If I won I could easily type up a quick directions "how-to" sew the dragon together.

Also, I'm sorta dissapointed with how difficult it is to see my design on the shirt. (But it could be the monitor, it looked fine when I submitted from home) Is there someway that I can link or add a larger view?

That's actually a pretty cool idea. I turned an old Pillsbury Doughboy shirt I had into a fun pillow when it got too worn out to wear.

Just use the < a href > code to post a link to a larger view if you want.

It'd be awesome if the dragon was on the front and the wings were on the back!

Great idea but I'm not sure if I'd really want to wear it...

This is petty groovy, but I'd be torn between wearing the shirt and cutting out the pattern.

i wouldnt wear it. its cute, but kind of a wierd design on the shirt. i would rather have a shirt with a cool design on it, and a pattern i could sew as two seperate entities.

i think it is cool, but i don't know if it is wearable because by itself, it doesnt make sense, but when you cut out the pieces, it does. I didnt explain that well. Anyways, I still say $5

panda kid on Jul 12 '06
really awesome. i would wear this so often that it gets worn out just so i can cut it up, wouldnt it make more sense if you put belly pieces on the front and back pieces on the back?
pyr4lis
pyr4lis on Jul 13 '06
Thanks for the comments.. and yeah I thought about putting the belly on the front idea. I figured "most" people probably wouldn't get it that way. And I thought that the most decorated part (the top) would look best in the front where most people would see it.

Also as a side note (I mentioned it earlier but have since confirmed it with many different people) the designs clairity and contrast seems to vary from monitor to monitor. Not sure why exactly that is... but just so you know if any of you are finding the image hard to see.

Thanks again for the comments & support!

This is actually really cool. You're basically brilliant. Especially because there are people who will buy two of them. Smart moves.
