You may remember my post from January asking readers to help me design a shirt with a gift certificate I received from Fibers.com. Because it was so much fun, I ended up with two. Check them out:
Since I am one of the most un-photogenic people on the planet, I decided against photographing myself in these adorable t-shirts.
Two comments on my experience with Fibers.com:
1. The shirts run VERY small. I normally wear a S or M shirt, but I ordered L because I like my t-shirts to be a little loose. They weren’t. First of all, I accidentally ordered one of them in a S, which barely even fits my relatively small 11-year-olds. The L was pretty much like a second skin. So just be aware when you order that you need to order at least two sizes bigger.
2. That said, Fibers.com has impeccable customer service and a 100% satisfaction guarantee. After several months of letting the shirts sit and gather dust, I wrote to my contact person there and explained the situation. He immediately had two XL shirts sent to me in the same designs I had ordered to begin with. Impressive!
THE PRIZE:
$25 gift certificate to Fibers.com. You can design your own apparel or buy one of the many ready-made designs. Some links to get you started:

I love the shirts you had made! They are really creative. Thanks for a great giveaway, and for the tip that these run small. I like my shirts a little looser, too.

I want to make daddy a tee with our undy 5000 team logo on it. We’re running in Dallas in October to raise awareness and money for a cure for colon cancer – the 2nd leading cause of cancer death in the US and a battle daddy has been bravely fighting for two years.
