I ended up useing the head hole as the waist line. and by cutting straight across for the bottom, the sides and bottom hem had pre-made, perfect stiching.

I hope this makes sense, Emily:
I started with an rather large t-shirt (big enough to be a dress)
Then I cut it just below the sleeves (or like 4 inches (depending on your body shape)) keep in mind that the top part/nickline will be the waist band so make it long enough. The bottom will be the actual skirt part.
So then, to make the waist band, I cut off the sleeves and sewed down the sides (where the sleeves were) so the origingal neckline is the top of the waistband.
Next, I attached the top to the skirt. The top band is a lot tighter than the skirt (A.K.A. original bottom half of the t-shirt) the so I had to put in some pleats.
Then it was on to straps which would theoretically be made with extra material from the sleves or between the top and bottom. I ran out of material and had to use a second shirt (shhh!).
I would simply suggest playing arround with it! If you have any other questions let me know!
