T-shirt To Dress Tutorial

  

FRUMPY TO FAB!!!

SUPPLIES:

XL T-SHIRT( THE LARGER YOU GET THE LONGER IT WILL BE)

COORDINATING THREAD

ELASTIC

SEWING MACHINE

EMBELLISHMENTS(OPTIONAL)

 START BY CUTTING OFF THE SLEEVES

  THEN DIRECTLY UNDERNEATH THE COLLAR CUT ACROSS THE SHIRT IN A STRAIGHT LINE

THEN CUT ABOUT 1 INCH OFF OF EACH SIDE SO THAT IT IS STRAIGHT ALL THE WAY DOWN.

( I DIDN'T GET A PICTURE OF THIS BECAUSE THE FIRST TIME I ONLY CUT THE SLEEVES AND THEN STITCHED THEM UP..... BUT IT MADE MY DRESS POKE OUT WHERE THE BOTTOM OF THE SLEEVE EXTENDED OUT...IF YOU'RE  CONFUSED CHECK OUT MY VIDEO UNDERNEATH THIS TUTORIAL!)

 I USED STITCH M BECAUSE I WANTED TO ENSURE  MY DRESS WOULD NOT FALL APART WHILE I WAS IN IT....THAT WOULD SCAR SOMEONE FOR LIFE!!!

THEN I STITCHED UP BOTH SIDES

NOW FOLD OVER THE TOP OF THE DRESS( WHERE YOU CUT UNDERNEATH THE COLLAR) ABOUT 1 1/2 OR MORE DEPENDING ON HOW THICK YOUR ELASTIC IS

PIN BOTH SIDES

SEW ....MAKE SURE YOU LEAVE AN OPENING TO FEED YOUR ELASTIC THROUGH

AND MAKE SURE YOU DON'T SEW BOTH SIDES OF THE DRESS TOGETHER!!!

PUT A SAFETY PIN AT ONE END AND FEED IT THROUGH THE TOP OF THE DRESS

SEW BOTH SIDES OF ELASTIC TOGETHER

                    

   AGAIN MAKE SURE ITS SECURE YOU DON'T WANT IT COMING APART! THEN SEW THE REST OF THE SEAM TOGETHER.

THERE IS YOUR DRESS!! I SEWED A PIECE OF RIBBON TO THE BACK TO MAKE A CUTE BELT!!!
