Old t-shirt to cute top!

Ok, so I wanted to try to draft my own pattern, did that, then I was afraid if I had measured wrong or anything I would mess up good fabric, soooo, I took an Old Tshirt and chopped it up applying my pattern! It actually turned out half way decent!

    Cut 2 strips from tshirt for straps. Cut & braid half of the straps. Gather the top of boob covers, place strap behind & sew.

  7. Step 7 7

    Cut 2 rectangle shapes out to cover strap ends, fold ends over, measure & pin around where strap meets top, slide off the strap & sew.

  8. Step 8 8

    Slide the covers back on the straps & voila... your shirt is done!

    I hope that covers it all! Sorry for the overload of pics! It's my first real tute! Any questions, just ask!
