We went to Healesville Sanctuary on the weekend. The echidnas had new straw and were busy busy busy digging, bulldozing and waddling about,
oblivious to the gaze of a size-one boy in size-three shorts.
They're the inspiration for my first freezer-paper stencil design. I'm joining Hoppo Bumpo and her Merry Horde in the freezer-paper stencil-along. Now, where to find a clean shirt?The clean shirt matter is proving surprisingly difficult. Where in Melbourne can I find inexpensive plain coloured t-shirts for kids? I've looked in Target but they all have prints on them. Any suggestions, folks?
Update: Thanks for the t-shirt suggestions, I went back to Target and found them there after all, and on sale, no less! Not in our size, which is why I missed them before, but since he's already wearing size three shorts I went for a large t-shirt to match :)

I love your design! Its going to look excellent on a size 3 shirt .... er, when you find one!
That's a pity about Target, as usually they come up trumps for plain boys' tees and skivvies (I've bought a few in size 1 to 3 this year for applique). You might have some luck at Big W or even somewhere like Best And Less?
Thanks HB! there's a best and Less near us, so I'll give them a try. Fingers crossed!
How about TSL (The Stock Liquidator) in either Smith St, Collingwood or Chapel Street, Prahran? They have bonds singlets and t-shirts etc. They could be worth a try.
Or American apparel in Chapel St or online http://www.americanapparel.net/storelocations/Details.aspx?RetailStoreID=262&lang=pri
I hope this helps.
I love your echidna, by the way.
