Reducing Large Tees

Instructions

• 

  Step 1

  Start out with a t-shirt that is too big for you.

• 

  Step 2

  Fold the t-shirt inside out and lay it down on a flat surface. Place another t-shirt (one that fits you properly) on top of the large t-shirt.

• 

  Step 3

  Trace the outline of the smaller t-shirt on to the larger t-shirt with chalk.

• 

  Step 4

  Place dressmaking pins along the outline, making sure to catch both sides of the t-shirt.

• 

  Step 5

  Pin right along the outline so that you have the outline of the smaller t-shirt pinned into the larger one.

• 

  Step 6

  Cut along the outside of the outline leaving a 1/2" margin.

• 
  
• 

  Step 7

  Using a sewing machine sew along the outline removing the pins as you go.

• 

  Step 8

  Turn the t-shirt back inside out and you're all done.
