Replying to [juanjuan2]:
you can use Felt. This is a heavy fabric you get from a furnishing fabric shop or craft shop. You can cut into shapes and glue to shirt. You can also cut the soft plastic on ice cream carton lids into shapes, colour with colouring pen, and glue. You can buy all sorts of paints and metal colours. Nowadays you can get coloured beads and buttons etc.

Replying to [juanjuan2]:you can print directly onto fabric and then cut that out and make an applique out of it with sewing or fabric glue. Probably the best bet for beginners is to use printer fabric sheets, also available in fabric stores.

Replying to [juanjuan2]:You can get transfer material in office supply stores and fabric stores. You use it to print a design backwards, the iron it onto your shirt.

Replying to [juanjuan2]:You can use stencils with fabric paints, or freehand with fabric paints and dyes that go on with a brush or an applicator bottle. And there are felt-tip fabric markers as well.
