the t-skirt

Hello, resewists! I'm Jenny, over here. I’ve been playing around with the idea of morphing a t-shirt and skirt into one piece for a while now. I finally tried it. This is the result:

I’ve hung on to this skirt for several years. I love the print but the skirt just didn’t fit me quite right after my first son, Jack, was born. I saved it hoping my body would return to its former shape. No luck there. (Can anyone relate?)

And here's what I used to make the t-skirt:

A skirt.

And a t-shirt.

There are many variations for playing around with this basic idea—as many as there are skirts and t-shirts! It turned out to be a pretty easy project. If you’d like to know how it was done, you can read a detailed step-by-step tute at my blog, the wildcards.

Thanks for the opportunity to share, RCO!
