I received this email about a week ago from Lara Lori

I'm Lara from Italy!
I love your blog and I've read all your tutorials.
I want to say you: Thanks so much!!!
Your works are really inspiring...
Sorry if I make you waste time, but
I'd like to ask you if you think that is possible to realize DIY this top, that I've seen reading an Italian magazine.
Thanks!
I' m waiting for your reply if you have the time...and, why not, for a tutorial for this top on WobiSobi blog!!!!
Here is my version of the top Lara wanted. The original picture is no longer available so I found another picture similar to the one Lara sent me.
This top is similar but the original was not cropped like the one above.

Tutorial
- T-Shirt * I used a grey men's medium.
- Scissors
- Chalk
- Place the shirt on a table
- Mark the shirt with a piece of chalk.
- Cut out the collar first
- Fold the shirt in half and then cut your sleeves
- Cut open the top of the shoulders
- Tie them back together and adjust to the size you want.
If you want the shirt to be cropped at the waist then all you need to do is
cut the bottom of the shirt to the length you want .
I left mine long because I am too old for a cropped tee ;)
Back
Have a wonderful Sunday.
Lots of <3,
Anne

I stumbled across your blog by accident and I am so happy I did. I love your work. You have inspired me to get busy creating. I am going to make a couple of no sew t shirts this weekend. I can't wait to get started. Thank you so much
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Tiki. You are so sweet:)
DeleteHey! This is such a great idea, I'm definitely going to do this for some of my old T-shirts this weekend. The bows really add a cute, stylish touch. Would you mind if I reblogged this onto an article I'm writing about upcycling old T-shirts? Please contact me at blogjia12@gmail.com - thanks so much! Obviously, if you say okay, I'll source back to you.
ReplyDeletewill this work for a tshirt that is already my size or does it need to be one that is bigger?

ReplyDeleteIt could work with your size shirt just fine:)
ReplyDeleteShort and simple too! Love it!!
ReplyDeleteSo easy, but so cute! I bought quite a few t-shirts while on vacation with the intention of refashioning them. This one turned out so cute, although I did take the time to do a small rolled hem on the armholes and necklines.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much Jedi ;) XXOO
DeleteThanks so much for this easy tutorial! I just followed your instructions and adapted a large t that I had received as a gift and it came out great. Wish I could post a pix! Thank you so much for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteWhen you was a tshirt that have raw edges, what happens?
