#2.1 Sunglasses
This design is my personal favourite, as I'm a self confessed Kylie Minogue fan. I saw a picture of her in a hat and glasses and it inspired me to adapt #2. I sent Kylie a couple of these t-shirts and she was so generous to sign one and return it. Thrilled much? Yep! Also, just quietly, Scarlette Stevens from San Cisco wears one too.

This design was initially created for Ability WA's 70th anniversary, although it didn't make the cut. Instead, I made it my own with help from local artist Trenton Harris. Each element represents a different disability.
