2 down, one to go

I LOVE my new ruffled white tee!! I'm so happy with how it turned out!



And to think, this is how it started...blah.


Here is the website that inspired me - Made By Rae




My next t-shirt makeover went from this...


""

to this...

This design was from the website Tea Rose Home

It didn't turn out as great as hers. Part of it is because I couldn't find a color to match the blue t-shirt so I had to use cream and the contrast gives it a different look.

Also, after the fact, I think I would have liked a square neckline on me instead of the round. It's still pretty though; just different than I imagined.

I still have the black t-shirt to remake and now have a few other things waiting in the wings. I love to sew!

I will post information on how I put these shirt together in the next post, for those of you who are interested. You can also visit the websites I linked to find out how they did theirs.

From blahh...to beautiful! You did an amazing job!

I wonder if the gal from Tea Rose Home used another t-shirt of the same color to make the ruffles...looking forward to your tutorial!
