DragonCon Countdown: 14 days! 2 weeks!!!
For Olivia’s birthday this year, my wonderful brother bought her Junior Jackets Club Membership. It means she gets a special shirt, a personalized badge, a Birthday Card from Buzz, some swag, and a free ticket to a Football game.
When the package arrived with the shirt, Olivia was underwhelmed. As my observant 4-year-old pointed out about the shirt, “There are no Jackets on it”. It does have a GT on the back, but without a Yellow Jacket, she just didn’t think it was for Georgia Tech. It is also a Youth small, which means it comes down to below her knees.
Since it was long enough to be a dress on her, I decided to alter it to be a dress. I could have easily done a pillowcase style dress, but wanted to add some “Yellow Jackets” and found the perfect fabric for it. I made a raglan style sleeve (what a surprise 🙂 and attached it, leaving the original neckline. I then added some elastic on the back of the dress until it almost reached the Junior Jackets on the front.
I’m excited for her to wear it this season to a couple football games! Go Jackets!
