Eyeball T-shirts How-To
1. Cut a white T-shirt into 3-by-5-inch pieces. Draw an eye shape, and circles within the eye shapes, onto each piece with a pencil.
2. Paint circles blue, green, or brown; let dry. Paint pupils with black paint. Accent by painting a white dot onto the pupil for shine, and red streaks onto whites of eyes to make them look bloodshot; let dry.
3. Trim around the eyes, leaving 1/4 inch all around for seam allowance. Turn a colored T-shirt inside out and pin eyes into place, face down. Use 5 to 6 eyes on the front and 1 on the center back. Sew around each eye.
4. Turn shirt right-side out. Cut a small hole in only the top layer of the center of the eye area. Trim fabric inside the stitches to reveal the eye, leaving a small amount for eyelid.

Eyeball T-shirts
These charming T-shirts are perfect for kids.
The Martha Stewart Show, May 2009

I made them for my great-nieces and nephews, adding fringe to the upper "lid" of the eyeballs for the girls. They are adorable and the kids (aged 3-8) just LOVED them.
Thanks for sharing your ideas, I think you are wonderfull
I can't wait to make them for my kids and there friends
Does it matter what fabric paint you use? I plan on making these with all my nieces and nephews at the family reunion next week. Should make for a cute family photo...probably the only one with all of our eyes open! ;)
Working on my 5th one. Also making them on adult ladies tank tops to wear to the gym.
I think this is a great idea :)
what a cool idea! I will certainly do this with the kids over the summer holidays.
