T-Shirt Refashion 2

You may have heard of Pinterest.  I am totally a visual person and this is the best spot for collecting and sorting images found on the Web I could ever dream of.  So many ideas, so little time!

I've had a t-shirt refashion idea "pinned" for a while and gave it a go last week.  I like her blog, Made By Lex, for her tutorials with lots of pictures. Cute results on Kaylyn! Purple is her life-long signature color.


I started with a long-sleeved Hanes t-shirt found at Goodwill, new, for $3.99.


This project was a little exercise in patience for me.  Getting the ruffles pinned and then sewn evenly was a bit tricky, but it was fun.




 I am happy with how it turned out! If you like the idea of t-shirt refashions here is another one I tried this spring.

That's adorable! I love tee refashions . . . I hate spending tons of money on cute t-shirts, especially when I know they'd be so easy to make :-) Yours turned out great!
