easy refashion of a top

 I started with this too loose top I was given . I thought the fabric had potential even though it was the wrong size. i wanted to move the shoulder seam but not loose the sleeve length.


I turned it inside out and tried it on the allow me to pin where to take it in. I cut the side seams and also separeated the sleeves. plus i had a strip from each side left over.


By reattaching sleeve and using the cut offs to add the cuff of the sleeve, I now have something a bit better fitting.
