You guys know those itchy lil tabs inside your clothes?

Whats a good DIY method of making them?

You could embroider/paint/iron on a pattern to a bit of scrap and sew it into the collar, although I don't see why you'd want to. As you said - itchy little tabs!

I saw on Project Runway, one of the designers used a bunch of the little red Levi's tags as trim for a jacket. I have a denim vest with a bunch sewed on to it near the collar/lapel.

Having an embroidering machine really helps.

You can order them pre-made (I know it's not very DIY). Here's a link. http://www.namemaker.com/productcart/pc/viewCategories.asp?idCategory=25

When I was little my mom used to put tags in all my stuff when I would go to Brownie camp.
