my pimp coaching jersey

so i'm coaching field hockey this season. it's so much fun, but the coaching jersey i got was a men's small! it almost went to my knees and the sleeves went half way to my wrists. there is only one word to describe my emotional state: drowning.

i took matters into my own hands and shortened the shoulders, the sleeves, and the torso. the shirt i got didn't say field hockey on it (we ran out), so i beaded that on in white 10° czech glass seed beads. under the red is the name of the school, which already came embroidered on the shirt. i sneakily scratched it out so you won't know where i work! (actually you all pretty much know where that is.)the back was rather plain. so, i traced crossed field hockey sticks on white jersey cloth (ok i borrowed one of andrew's white undershirts) and stitched gold 10° czech glass seed beads down the middle. and ditto for the ball. even if the girls do sprint slower than anyone i've ever seen, we must win since their coach has the most piiiiiiiimp jersey! ok off to bed!
