Miranda Anderson created her own cross-off-the-weeks maternity shirt during her second pregnancy. She painstakingly cut 40 numerals out of freezer paper and then stenciled each one by hand. She wore the shirt while expecting her second child, and crossed off each number with a fabric pen as the weeks progressed. Soon she was asked by other mothers-to-be for their own.
Not wanting to repeat the laborious stenciling, Miranda attended Screenprint Society to print some more shirts. As a letterpress printer, she quickly picked up the processes, and was especially good about keeping the studio clean! The shirts turned out beautifully as reported on her One Little Minute blog, where she also takes orders. As it seems she has a "hit" on her hands, we expect to see more of Miranda and her go-to green shirts.
