My husband cleaned out his drawers a few months back and gave me some of his old t-shirts to experiment with. I got a sewing machine for Christmas (for myself) and have been learning as I go. I took a sewing class in High School but that was YEARS ago…so I’ve become friends of YouTube to re-teach me how to sew.
This use to be a concert t-shirt that he probably wore only a few times. Now it’s a cute toddler skirt. I didn’t have a pattern to follow – but I did look closely at a skirt that she already has in her wardrobe as a reference. I forgot to take pictures along the way but I promise to make it again and provide you with a tutorial.
Have you made any Trash to Treasure projects this week? I’d love to see them – leave a comment with a link to your pictures.
Oh! i love that! how cute and what a great idea! I'd love to learn how to that – of course i may never find the time but…
I didn't do these this week, but here's a few of my upcycled “trash to treasure” clothing items:
