Cutie Pi Shirt - Freezer Paper Stencil Pattern


As I was clearing off the computer desk the pattern for Firecracker's Cutie Pi Shirt resurfaced, so I thought I would go ahead and share.


I made it with Curlz MT font that I simplified just a bit and then I added the extra curly cues to the Pi symbol.

Firecracker got to help with painting hers.

You can find my tutorial for freezer paper stenciling here.  We forgot to iron Firecracker's shirt before we washed it for the first time, so it looks a little more "distressed" than we'd intended...so make sure to iron!  I used regular acrylic craft paint.

And she had fun wearing it to school for the Kindergarten Pi-Day activities.

All the kids got their own Pi shirts for Pi-Day this year.  I'll post Sweet Pea's pattern soon, but you can find the Mud Pi Pattern here.




If you're looking for additional inspiration, you can see my full collection of Pi-inspired projects here.

And if you love math enough to consider making a Pi shirt, you'll definitely want to enter my current giveaway for a Pi Necklace from Boutique Academia.  The giveaway is open until March 18th at 12:00am.

Please show my sponsors some love...
