Reverse applique on ‘Big Bang Theory’ shirt

Dark blue 'Big Bang Theory' shirt depicting the hand gestures for 'Rock-Paper-Scissors-Lizard-Spock,' arranged in a five-sided configuration with directional arrows indicating which gesture is the 'winner' during a match. The neckline and sleeves have been decorated with reverse applique, the T-shirt fabric cut away to display a row of three squares of floral fabric in patterns of blue, white, and red

Sonoma County crafters, who else has visited The Legacy near downtown Sebastopol? It’s a great thrift-consignment shop that features crafting supplies.

Came away from my first visit to The Legacy with some great floral-patterned fabric, which I used to create a reverse applique for my “Big Bang Theory” T-shirt.

(Yes, even something as awesome as this shirt, depicting “Rock-Paper-Scissors-Lizard-Spock,” can become even more awesome through the marvel of customization.)

Best of all, the “fabric” was a no-longer-used cushion cover — thereby diverting something for repurposing that may otherwise have had no further use.

The Legacy is located at 789 Gravenstein Highway South. The merchandise has been donated, and it’s run by volunteers for the Sebastopol Area Senior Center.
