T-shirts and tank tops are an integral part of our wardrobe, and each of us has several of them, plain or printed. Few things will surpass them in popularity, except jeans.
The T-shirt is ideal for a variety of alterations and changes.
For example, you can make a cozy summer dress from a T-shirt. For this you will need light fabric. Cut out a rectangle 1.5 times wider than a T-shirt of any length. Also shorten the T-shirt at the waist or under the bust. Gather the fabric into gathers and sew to the T-shirt.
You can also focus on the back: sew in lace, make cuts of any shape, or decorate the shelf.
I have a t-shirt that I cut off the sleeves, traced them and cut out the other sleeves from the stitching. Then I sewed them in as they were. Even those who don’t know how to sew will be able to do this alteration, and the result will be simply gorgeous.
You can update a T-shirt in any way, look at one of them.
The T-shirt will remain as is, only a decorative element will be added that can be changed. But first we need to make some changes.
- Cut the neck, you can deepen it if desired.
- You will also need knitwear in the same color as the T-shirt. The width is 5 cm. The length of the strip is 8-10 cm shorter than the neckline. The strip should be cut so that it stretches in length. I turned the edges under and stitched.
- Then I folded it in the middle and smoothed it with an iron, forming a semicircle.
- I stitched the strip to the T-shirt, overcast the edge, and it turned out to be a drawstring.
- Now let's take a light, airy fabric like chiffon or silk. Let's cut out a ribbon from it, it can be double, long, short, the edges can be processed with a small zigzag.
- You can experiment with the color of the fabric. She put it into the drawstring and tied it with a knot.
All is ready.
There will probably be things in your closet that will become a wonderful basis for creative ideas, if you wish.
All the best!
