Here is another easy and fun t-shirt upcycling idea. These are all ordinary tees that I have turned 90 degrees and made the neckline into the sleeve. The original sleeve ends up as a shoulder tie and waist tie. Fun project to do with those old tees. No sewing skills needed.

I wanted to experiment with some vest tops I had to hand as they didn’t really offer much of a look as they were. They had a string vest like netting on the top and a contrasting block colour underneath.
I started with some top stitching on machine and by hand and then cut out sections of the top layer to reveal the base layer.
This could easily be done by adding various bits of fabric on top of an ordinary top and then stitched and cut away. Maybe a button or two for good measures.
Just an excuse to use this background really.

Another pair of black jeans turned into a one off a kind creation.
My lovely friend Jess asked me if I could make her a dress in the style of the upcycled skirts that I had previously made. I tried to keep all the key features of the jeans.
Here is the outcome.
