So if I get nothing else done I can say I completed my Craft Stash Challenge for this month.
Some years ago I went nuts over t-shirts and purchased a heap of them with the idea to cut and redesign. Before I even got started I lost interest in it. Then I bought black tees in every size to make silk screened tees with the LOST logo. I read up on how to do it and decided that I wasn’t ready to invest in the time and materials at that moment. No matter because after seeing that finale I would be using that shirt to clean the toilet.
So they have sat, waiting for action or donation and I thought why not wing it and transform it into something different. No measuring, just cut, pin fit, and sew. I mean, it’s only a t-shirt.
This was not my first choice for color combo, but I had to work with what I had. I was not to buy another shirt to add to the collection! These colors together totally remind me of the neon colored surf wear that was popular in the 80s and 90s: Rude Dog, T and C. I didn’t live anywhere near a beach, but I remember seeing some of that gear.
Overall, I wish I did something to stabilize the neckline to avoid stretching it out. NOW, What am I going to do with the rest of those unsexy tees?
