  Step 1

  -Take the shirt you want to use and measure how long you want the section under the bust to be.
  -Mark this length out with Chalk.
  -Measure the length around your torso, (under your bust) and divide that measurement in 1/2 and mark this at the top of the section you are going to cut. (mark it out in the center)
  -Draw a diagnal line from the top of the measurement to the bottom of the shirt.
  (Note the red section)

• 

  Step 2

  -cut along the diagnal lines and the shorter line from the bust measuremnt.
  -face the outside of the fabric into each other and stitch it up on both sides.
  -you now have the bottom portion of your halter.

• 

  Step 3

  -Take one of the sleeves and hold open the tube.
  -cut both of the sides of the tube so that you have two pieces.
  - If the hem of the sleeve is still intact, then you can use it for the next step, otherwise create an inch hem on each.

• 

  Step 4

  - Take the tube from step 2 and fold down an inch hem inside of the shirt and stitch it using a wipstitch.
  -attach the sleeves to the top of the tube.
  -Take the excess fabric and cut three strands.
  -Thread one through each hem of the sleeves, so that a piece of fabric is coming from each side.
  -Cut two holes in the back of the halter where the hem is.
  -Feed the third piece of fabric through.

Way cute! I love how it's bigger at the bottom, so it has a sort of babydoll shape to it. I've got a couple baggy shirts sitting around, and I can't wait to try it!!
