T-Shirt Tabs set can be found here: http://www.designsbysick.com/details/tshirttabs
These T-Tabs are just wonderful for your over-sized T shirts.
They match the necklines design sets.
They quite easy to make and don’t take a lot of time.
You can use any type of fabric you like.
I used a med. weight tear-a-way for the tabs
Happy Stitching!

1. Placement stitch—-after stitching this stitch place fabric over hoop right side up.
2. Then stitch #2 This will tack down the fabric in place.(DO NOT TRIM YET)
3. Now follow CC for stitching design in place.
4. After design stitches slide a piece of fabric under hoop (this is your bottom, make sure
the right side of fabric is face down).
5. Stitch the tackdown stitch—this stitches the front and the back together. Now remove
hoop and trim the fabric from the front and back as close as possible without clipping the
threads.
6. Return hoop to machine and stitch next color, this is the satin edging.
7. Now stitch last color, this is the lg satin button holes.

One of our customers, Annie in the UK, found another use for the T-Shirt Tabs!
She turned hers into a scarf holder!
Thanks for allowing us to use your photo, Annie!
Great Idea, and love the instructions and the pictures. I will have to try this.
thanks for sharing.

I love this set! And if the buttonholes aren’t stitched and with a little redoing, they will make beautiful coasters. I am going to make some of the t-tabs up for the tshirts already done with the matching neckline designs and this will make such a cute gift. Thanks so much for the designs and the wonderful, easy to understand instructions. It makes it so much better to have the pictures to follow along with. I am starting on these right now! Hugs and blessings, Penny
Hi Bonnie!
Great Instructions.
Could you tell us what stabilizer(s) you would recommend for these so that the T-Tabs are stiff enough and hold their shape?

Thank you for showing these. I caught one on the hourly freebies and didn’t have the foggiest idea what they were for. At least now I know, and if I can make a few up I even have a few friends that might just use them.
I have sneakers with valcro. I used the deisn and placed onto sneaker, velcro tab. If I knew how to put a picture here, I would.
Are these FSL designs? If not what type fabric are they stitched on?
I didn’t know what T-Shirt tabs were. Thanks for sharing your talents. I really enjoyed your pictures of your project and step by step instructions. Thank you!!
ANNIE YOU HAS GREAT CREATIVE MIND
