T-shirt time!

It must be the weather for i! I have managed to refashion a couple of t-shirts. First up is this basic square-cut animal print t-shirt, which cost me $3. I removed the collar ribbing and the pocket, cut the sleeves shorter and added some random darts for shaping.

Here's a detail of the inside so you can see a bit better what I did:

Then there is this band shirt which I picked up at Salvos for I think $4. I love Tool!

Originally I was just going to shape it and wear as a t-shirt, but I was inspired by Erica's Kingfisher dress and decided to make a dress out of it.
I cropped the sleeves, took in the sides a bit, and unpicked the hem (I wanted to keep as much length as possible). Using the sleeve offcuts and the leftovers from another black t-shirt I had chopped up, I created this dress.

I have to say that this was actually one of the most fun refashions I've done in a while! Plus of course I was listening to the Tool album featured on the shirt while I sewed. I can honestly say this refashion took me "10,000 Days" to complete! Heh heh.
