Knitting Yarn, Books, Patterns, Needles & Accessories 20 minute crafter: how to make a t-shirt into a skirt. so i started with this tutorial from "sew like my mom"...but quickly decided that 1) shirring is of the devil and 2) i wanted a less fuss waist...so i made my own tutorial for making a mens t-shirt into the worlds most comfortable skirt ever. perfect for summer. this skirt makes me wish i knew how to sew before i had babies because this would be THE most perfect pregnant skirt as well...i'll be making a few more to get me through the hot, hot days of summer... you will also need some 3/4in elastic. 24in for a small...30in for a medium...36in for a large...48in for XL... or measure your waist and make your best guess. :) start by laying your shirt out flat on cutting mat...i lined my cutting guide up on the top of each sleeve...and cut to get a nice parallel (to the bottom hem) line... ...see...nice and straight...from that first straight line... i cut off a couple more inches...to get the collar out of the way... ...next...i lined up the corner of the bottom hem...with top of the sleeve...

Back to School Wardrobe on a Budget! Prepare yourself for a photo explosion...seriously, I should have divided this post up into 6 separate posts! Do you spend a ton of money on a new Back to School wardrobe? I get it, some schools have uniforms...but we homeschool...so here is how we do our Back to School Wardrobe on a Budget! To begin. Yes, a grundle...I think in the 20-30 range. And we bought a roll of FREEZER PAPER...about $6 at Walmart. Freezer paper is awesome. The shiny side will stick when you iron it...so you can cut a stencil...Iron it to fabric...paint it...then peel off the freezer paper! We had lots of fabric paint, so we were ready to go! And a custom t-shirt form...I mean, a flat rate box...fits a shirt perfectly! We used the Silhouette Cameo to cut the freezer paper in our desired shapes... but this could be accomplished (maybe more easily) with a hobby knife! There were a few varieties of tee's we did. We used a picture of Applebloom from My Little Pony. #1: Full Color We cut the outline of the picture out... Last!
