Hello peops! Hope you're having/have had a lovely day today. Today was my first day back at college and I felt as if a huge weight had been lifted. It was so nice to be back in a creative/learning environment (rather than holed up in my Portiacabin) and with real live like minded people who understand why you get excited about seams lining up properly! I hadn't realised how starved of company I have been over the Summer until I got into class today, and it was like someone had suddenly flipped a light switch on. (If that makes any sense whatsoever!)
So just a quickie post today. I thought I'd share with you some of the images that I was pondering as inspiration when wondering what to do with the two T Shirts
Zoe challenged me to refashion as a part of my recent
"The Refashioners" series..
Images are from

Whole Living,
I think pretty much all of these styles could be replicated as a refashioning project. Some of them are just simple ways of providing a bit of interest or shape to a plain tee. Some of them would require more in depth reconstruction. See what you think. There's a couple of them I may yet have a go at doing myself....even without
friendly coercion!

I would love to "encourage" you to try and share your techniques on how you would attempt the tee on the top all the way over to the right (the peachy pink one). I like the style that is longer on the sides and shorter in the center. I have been following and enjoying the refashions that your friends have done and am actually back today to look for some inspiration (I went thrift store shopping yesterday and picked up several 99cent men's shirts to practice on.)
ReplyDeleteOooh, I have a few jersey items hanging around that I have been considering, and that tealy blue gathered cross over at bottom right but one is calling me!
ReplyDeleteHi Rachel, that should be as straight forward as cutting the hem to the shape you want and re-hemming so it holds that shape :)
ReplyDeleteHey Monkeysocks, yeah that's a good one isn't it. Should really suit you too and looks fairly straightforward. Love to see it if you get round to it!
