Super Easy, No sew, T-Shirt Vest.
Naming this,
The Sarah Vest.
I don't know about you, but I have been seeing these vests everywhere.
My sister always has such cool ones.
Cute, easy, and comfortable, vests like these are a really adorable way to layer and change up an outfit. Wow!, and it only cost me $3.00. ( I bought a pack of 3 ,v neck, t- shirts for $9.00 ) Now I can make one in every color and it won't break the bank.
I made a basic White one this time, but I think a black one is next on my list.
Go design crazy, use your imagination, add things like pretty ribbon, or ruffles, buttons, chains, flowers, really experiment, that's the fun part.
Things You Need
1. Fold the t shirt in half, to find the middle~ I ironed it to mark the middle~ or you could mark the middle with chalk.
2. Cut on the red lines.
4. Trim 6, one inch strips, of t shirt material~ I used the sleeve~ and tie the shirt as shown in the picture above.
Two up around the collar bone , and Four in the back.
5. I stretched the material under the arm and around the neck to make the material curl.
and with that,
you are done with the basic vest.
Now you can change this up any way you want.
I am still thinking about how I want to make mine different.
I Re-Styled the Vest,

I just found your blog and I must say, this is brilliant! Those vests look great with long sleeve shirts as well as short, so with winter coming up, it will be a great way to spruce up the wardrobe on the frugal side.
ReplyDeleteFrom Pinterest to ? to ? to Wobisobi...and glad I kept clicking. I found 2 great idea for holiday gifts. And I know the recievers will say, "where, I mean how, no I mean where did you find the great idea!" I will just smile! Thanks Anne :o)

ReplyDeleteDoes it Frey?
ReplyDeleteNo, it does not fray. That is why t- Shirts are the best for no sew projects. Great question!

Did not do too bad for my first time. Turned out pretty good. I would recommend however buying a size larger t-shirt then what you normally wear unless you want it fitted. Of course, it could've been the way I cut too. =)
DeleteSuch a cute idea!!! I can't wait to make one! Do you buy the tshirt in your actual size or a size bigger??
ReplyDeleteI have got to try this. I have a 7 year old grandaughter who would love one of these. Thanks for the great idea.
ReplyDeleteHow come you can't print the instructions off.
ReplyDeleteI am not sure why you can't?
Deletetry saving them, then printing.
I love this idea. Great!
ReplyDeleteDivina quedo!!!!
ReplyDeleteMy 13-year old made one all by herself. Thanks for the tutorial: http://trophyw.blogspot.com/2012/03/no-sew-t-shirt-vest.html

ReplyDelete:) <3
DeleteOh My...I'm not sure how I found your awesome site but I love it! This project is adorable, Imma be forwarding to all of my DIYer friends for sure! Yay! One question though Please...How much bigger of a tee do you suggest you go than the size you normally wear? IE:A men's medium for say a 7-9 maybe? Just curious, want to give my girlie's an idea as we are all different sizes. Me? I'm a size 3 but like things big..was thinking a men's medium as well? Thanks in advance...Your new biggest Fan. Melinda mxmomma05@yahoo.com
ReplyDeleteHello there you:) so glad you found me. I wear a medium in womens sizes, so I did this vest in a mens medium, the only real difference is the length when you change sizes. if you would like a longer vest go up to a large. But if your a size 3, then medium or small mens would most likely good for you. I hope this helps. I always practice on an old shirt old my husbands. have a fantastic day.

Thanks for posting. Your creativity is inspiring. My 10 year old daughter and I are cleaning out the closets (my T-shirts for her vests, my husbands t-shirts for vest for me). I am an avid sewer, but LOVE the fact that these are 'no-sew' for a fun project that can be done so quickly with so little tools. Please keep sharing your ideas... they really are inspiring.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Samantha!! :) have a great day!

DeleteWe're bound for Boracay next weekend, and I've been looking for a cute swimsuit cover-up...and this will be just perfect. I'm off to hunt for tshirts...! Thank you!
ReplyDeleteyour so welcome! Have a great time!
DeleteWOW, This is awesome!!! :D
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Ana!!!
DeleteSuper Cute! I have to agree with all the comments. My only question is about washing. Do you toss it into the washer & dryer? Do the cut edges stretch? I'd like to make one in black and maybe jazz it up with studs or something similar for going out. I'm looking forward to trying this. Thank you for sharing this with all of us! clelldonnar@gmail.com

ReplyDeleteMuchas gracias.
Deletethank you for the full explanation of how to make it.. i am so making this
ReplyDeleteI used this pattern to make a bathing suit cover-up for my daughter. I did not cut down the middle of the front. Instead of a vest it is a dress. The way it gathers in the back allows for a little flair at the bottom. Super easy and super cute.
ReplyDeleteGreat Idea!! thank you :)
Deletesuper good idea i am going to do that to!!!
DeleteHmmmm...I'm seeing one of these in tie-dye for me :) Thanks so much!!
ReplyDeleteMade it tonight! This cost me a whole $3.48! New shirt from Wal-Mart, regular scissors, and now its in the wash getting ready for me to wear to work tomorrow. I have to say I'm really excited!!!
ReplyDeleteI did have trouble figuring out how exactly how to put it on at first, but I LOVE IT!
Oops! Forgot that I was browsing! I made the draped vest this evening :)
DeleteYOU ARE AMAZING!!!! :)))) I love DIYs too but you're incredible

Can this be done with a thicker material for winter? I do plan on doing this and wearing long sleeve under it, maybe even a turtle neck
ReplyDeleteYes, I think you can use a slightly thicker material. :)
