Kitty Pryde, alias Shadowcat, is a popular member of Marvel’s X-Men. Born with a genetic mutation allowing her to pass through solid objects, and share that power to anything she is touching. This makes her a valuable asset to the X-Men force.

When creating her iconic black X-men bodysuit with the large yellow X across the body we have provided two separate DIY options for you. The first is to start with the black bodysuit and use yellow fabric paint to stencil and paint the yellow areas. The second is to use another yellow bodysuit (made of the same material as the black) and to use sewing chalk marker pencils to track the areas where you would need to cut and stitch the yellow X on the black bodysuit, using the black bodysuit as the base layer.
