Grey, No Sew Vest


Because of all of the questions I have received about this project,
I have done a quick video on this No Sew Vest.
This vest is very Similar to some of the other vests I have done, with slight variations .
You can visit them HERE and HERE
Hopefully this will answer some of those questions.
Written instructions will be below as well.
You can basically make this in about 5 minutes.
Have Fun.








Tutorial
Things you need
  1. Large or Extra large T-Shirt (I use Hanes)
  2. Scissors

 Here is a quick, four minute video on how I did it.









  • fold your shirt in half
  • cut wear the red lines are
  • open the shirt back up: cut a straight line, up the middle of the front.
  • cut three strips from one of the sleeves
  • tie where shown.



This is very similar to this T-vest I did last Summer.
Link below the picture.


Easy, No Sew projects are some of my favorite things.
Do you like easy no sew projects?
Here are a few more I have done.

 Have a great Weekend.
Come back tomorrow,
to see what Sailor Sam has been up to.
Lots of <3

  4. These are so awesome!! Thank you for sharing your wonderful ideas and amazing ways to save money and still be in style. I was wondering though, one of the comments that was left mentioned the Sarah vest? I don't see it any where and just want to make sure I am not missing out on something cool. Thanks again, and the videos are awesome and really helpful. Keep those coming!!

  7. Question... If I were to make this for someone petite do you think I should use a small or medium shirt? And would you size down for the other altered shirts?

    1. I think a medium shirt for a petite person would work well. I am 5'8 and I weigh about 140 pounds,or around 10 stones in England, and I wear a large mens shirt for this project. I hope this helps.

  12. I made one of these vests with an old tee shirt i had. It is really cute, but a bit to small. I will have to pick up another larger shirt and give this one to my younger sister. Now my only question is my husband had asked me, how I am going to wash it without it falling apart, I was wondering if you had any suggestions....

  19. Thank you so much. I had an old baggy t-shirt in my wardrobe that I wasn't keen on and I needed something Summery (as we are having some real sun here in England for a change. Thought I would probably make a hash of it as I didn't want to cut up the front part but it has turned out perfectly.

    I'm going to the charity shop now to find some more t-shirts.
