T Shirt Refashon



This is the summer of refashion. I love saving money and what better way then to take an old shirt and turn it into something you will wear.



This shirt was a large and too boxy for me.  So I started by cutting the sleeves and collar off.


 

Then I turned it inside out, put it on pinched the sides of the shirt ware it was too big and marked, with a pen, then took it off pined it and sewed. (Only the one side first.)


Cut the extra material, fold the shirt in half, line up the other side of the shirt and mark what you need to take it in (this helps the shirt to be symmetrical) pin and sew.



Now try the shirt on, still inside out.  If you need to take it in around the bust area then pinch the material where it hangs mark and sew in place.






For some fun cut off the sleeves at the shoulder and twist the front straps one time.  Pin them and sew together



Turn the shirt right side out and were it.

  1. What a difference! I've always wanted to resize a t-shirt, now maybe I will. And I like that you made it sleeveless, great idea!
