One of my favorite things to refashion is tee shirts.  This skirt was inspired by "Tease" a book about recreating your tee shirts.  This is by far the simplest way to make a skirt from a tee shirt.  Just cut the tee shirt open from shoulder to shoulder, cutting off excess.  I cut the sleeves in half also.  Cut a couple holes close to each other in the hem that has now become waistline casing.  Thread a ribbon through the casing and taa daa, you've got a cool skirt.  I picked this tee shirt cuz I didn't care that what it says was gonna end up upside down by I put it on the backside of the skirt.




This tee shirt fabric is really, really thin, so when I wore it today.  No I didn't remember to take a picture, I wore it over black bloomer pants.
