I took a shirt and made it cooler for my husband.
I used freezer paper stencils that I made by tracing some photos of chain rings. The only hard part was cutting precisely around all those teeth.
I really like the final result. A bike enthusiast friend suggested that I should have just spray painted over actual chain rings. I hadn't thought of that, but I don't think my husband would have approved of that approach.
Hard to get a good picture of the whole thing. He was really pleased with this one. Freezer paper stencils are so easy, why don't I do it more often?

Love this shirt and technique. You did a wonderful job.
kewl shirt! I think if you had used actual gears the spray would have gone under the edges, you did a great job.
I've used freezer paper to make small bits to quilt around, like hearts and bunny rabbits.
