So, this week our car has been in the shop with an electrical issue. I was riding the bus this morning to work with this shirt on my lap. I had to pretend that everything was normal and that I always take ugly shirts with me to work. (The client is going to pick it up from me at work) This young mother with a baby in her lap could not take her eyes off this creation for 5 minutes. I was busting up inside. Little did she know that a famous rodeo clown wears this shirt and it fits his occupation....priceless....
Each year, I get to sew one of these..... Usually, the fabric is western themed, but this year, oh, this year, I got to sew with this the jungle print and the stripe. The client buys the fabric and brings it to me to sew. This year, he didn't get enough jungle print for the sleeves. I went to JoAnns where they purchased the fabric and no jungle print. I googled online the selvage information--no fabric available. I picked the least offensive substitute, this black dotted fabric...
He also likes gripper snaps instead of buttons, to be able to rip the shirt off in a hurry...
This rhinestone cowboy is my co-worker, Kaleb. I didn't even ask him to model, coersing was not needed... he just put it on and started posing and I grabbed my camera. Too funny.

I think that is about the ugliest shirt I've ever seen! Perfect for a proffesional clown.
How fun. Looks like he loves his shirt. You really did a good job.
I think the shirt is great....for it's intended use :)
Kaleb is adorable.
You have told me about this rodeo clown who has you sew his shirts. I haven't seen the others you have sewn so I don't have a reference for attractiveness. This one is really quite awful...but the workmanship looks fantastic!!
That is too funny!!! It takes a confident man to wear that shirt!!!
I'm actually a little jealous that Kaleb gets to wear that, I'm not gonna lie.
