You Will Need (3 things)

  • Lining Fabric
  • T Shirt
  • Zip

Steps (8 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Grab an old t-shirt

  2. 2

    Cut in 2 - I cut around 10 inches from bottom.

    Cut sleeves off and cut a straight neckline.

  3. 3

    Place top piece onto lining fabric. Cut around this.

    Sew the sides of the lining fabric together.

  4. 4

    Sew two lines across the top of the bottom piece. This will be the "skirt" part.

    I did this by hand, but you can just loosen the tension on your sewing machine

  5. 5

    Pin the gathered bottom piece onto the top piece.

    Make sure the top piece is in line with the lining when pinned.

    Sew.

  6. 6

    Pin a line down the bottom of the top.

    Cut down this line.

  7. 7

    Insert zip. Pin and sew.

  8. 8

    Turn right side out. Voilà!
