I love to make holiday shirts for my little guy.  I just finished his up the other day and thought I would share my patterns! My son is 8 and in a size 8/10.  If you are making smaller shirts, print the patterns at between 50% and 80% to achieve the smaller size.

| The tree, spider and turkey shirts.  I didn't take a picture of the tie shirt, but you can imagine the cuteness!  I love the look of googly eyes on shirts.  It adds an unexpected element.  I simply hot glue them on at the end.  They hold up in the washing machine just fine.  I have a shirt I made 3 years ago with eyes that are still on tight!    |

| Sew the tree trunk and then the tree pieces from bottom to top | 
  | 
| Pin the circle for the spider body.  Pin ribbon pieces on and under the body.  Sew around circle.  Sew legs on.  Hot glue googly eyes on. | 
  | 
| Sew the turkey feathers on from bottom pieces to the top middle.  Sew turkey body on.  Sew turkey nose.  Hot glue googly eyes.  I sewed around everything in white to unify it.  I think the effect turned out nice. |
