Woot! .. so I had so much fun the other day reconstructing tees that I decide to do another. I wanted to do smthg a little different this time. Smthg a bit more challenging. Again, I had no idea where to start so I just picked up my "template" tee and started cutting again.

The sleeves for the panda tee worked out great but I wanted smthg a little funkier this time so I decided to make the sleeves shorter and add ruffles to them .. woot! ..  I then worked on creating a "belly band" since I wanted a looser fitting tee but without the "ventilation" that comes with it  .. After that was done, the tee still fit a tad looser than what I had wanted so I decided to take a chance add some pintucks to bring in the width of the body in a bit. 3 for the back and 5 for the front. Next I increased the V neck and sewed everything together.. and voila! .. that's how my men's XL tee was transformed into a funky, slouchy, V neck, ruffle sleeve, and pintucked shirt fitted just for me .. woot!  

While I had loads of fun reconning this tee, all the sneezing and coughing and breathing through my mouth that came with it was not fun at all ... argh to being sick with a cold... I was hoping my cold would all go away within a day or two but boy was I wrong cause I'm still sick as a puppy ... oh welly ... guess that means no more crafting for me until I get all better again .. not my first choice but a definitely a wise one! Hubby would be proud!
