There is an endless stream of fun, easy and creative refashion projects on the internet. Often of an evening while my sweetheart and I comfortably watch television in our Barcaloungers I'll serf the web and collect new ideas to try between quilts. I finished the Cat quilt this past weekend. This cute top idea slipped in before I begin cutting panels for a Rugrats quilt.
The refashion is a man's dress shirt paired with a t-shirt. I bought the red t-shirt at a second-hand store because I liked the lace insets on the sleeves.
The blue dress shirt was an old one of D's. It had to be taken in quite a bit as it was a man's extra-large. I also added the decorative strip which has red and blue stars to dress it up a bit.
More practice in the 'fitting' process will help plus a better quality t-shirt would look and work better. I like the design and look of this refashion and will keep my eyes open for better dress/t-shirt combinations. What do you think?
