I got this hello kitty t-shirt at a Japanese market for ten dollars.. hooray! But, unfortunately, it is a youth XL. Now, I stood there, trying to convince myself that I, then fifteen years old, could still squeeze into a children's shirt. I got it anyway, but haven't really worn it since then... Now it's a bit more snug and not so t-shirt like..? Enjoy! (..or not, whatever) :D

Instructions

  1. Small 0609091252a 1244599908

    안영! Hehe.. Step one! Find a shirt. (Maybe one that's a little unflattering..?)

  2. Small 0609091300 1244599961

    Remove the collar, please!

  3. Small 0609091312 1244600198

    Yeah.. get in there and get the whole thing out..! I can only tolerate collars so much..

  4. Small 0609091321 1244600403

    Alright, get rid of this fabric.. I find it unnecessary and just extra bulk.

  5. Small 0609091321a 1244600624

    Yep.

  6. Small 0609091323 1244600582

    Fold and pin the neck hole.

  7. Small 0609091328 1244600661

    Sew.

  8. Small 0609091356 1244600677

    I was going to stop there, but I just didn't like the shape of the shirt. So, I did the whole hourglass shabang. Ignore the right side of the shirt, I don't know why it came out so weird-looking in the picture!

  9. Small 0609091401 1244600799

    I didn't like the sleeves, so I wanted them a bit shorter. I cut them at an angle, too.

  10. Small 0609091548 1244602100

    Cut, sew, hem.. All done!

  11. Small 0609091618 1244602296

    :)

    Haha... I tried so hard to get a good picture of the back.. but it was too difficult for me..
