Scrolling through and I see this is the last post in dress making which makes it first post in dress making 7 years ago! fantastic, and I still see you on here! yaya!
I've used this for three of my shirts and I just love it. Geeky shirts only come in boy sizes and I love making them girl shirts. They go from barely worn into regular rotation.
Thanks for this one! My friend gave me an shirt depicting a fandom (Twilight) that I am obsessed with as a graduation present that I would love had it not been for the fact its too freaking big for me!
Wow, is it this simple?
I got a nice t-shirt from my boyfriend as a birthday present, but it's way too big (they only had this size) but i want to wear it without looking like i'm camping in my own clothes... this is what i'm going to do to it thanks!
Really helpful, I've got t-shirts that needed taking in, gives me a chance to practice my sewing machine skills too. IS there no end to your talents m'dear!!
I lost 88 pounds and most of my wardrobe. Today, I altered 3 tee-shirts. I thought I'd never get to wear my favorites again.....but now they fit better than ever
Just remember ladies, if your smaller shirt is stretchy, and your large shirt is not, you may have a tight fit across the chest. I suggest your smaller shirt has the same material as the larger so you know it will stretch and fit in the same way.
For the t-shirt I used, the neckline didn't need to be reduced as it looked fine. I'm not sure how you would go about doing it, over than making a new neckline out of extra fabric. <br><br>
I removed the original sleeves and then sewed new sleeves out of the main part of the t-shirt. To make the sleeves look neater, you would sew a small part of the edge under or go over it with an over-locker.
how do you get the shoulder seam to loook right?..becase the neck hole is larger than the smaller shirt...so the shoulders kind of sag...or either look oddly?

Nice one though, hopefully if I lose weight a version of this will help me with all my tent-like clothing ;)
