My New (to me) Yellow Shirt

I started off with a standard button up shirt that has been hanging in my closet for a long time. As you can see, I almost forgot to get a before picture.


I cut off the collar and changed the neckline. I used the material from the sleeves to make a pleated ruffle at the neckline. The top button is permanently closed now but it is still easy to get on and off. I had to tack the ruffle down as it wanted to flip up.

The ruffle is a cute addition - it makes for a lovely new top.
