supposedly it's gonna be 102 tomorrow... crazy. it's been hot enough today.
i've been reinventing some t-shirts and altering some so they fit me better. also mending holes... i have a big bag of shirts for mending. so i started working on them yesterday, cuz i don't have money for the thrift store. two of my friends in high school sewed a lot and helped me learn how to cut down t-shirts and make them fit. so over the years i've resewn a lot of shirts. they sometimes turn out a little weird, but it's usually better than them being huge.
favorite shirt. it was getting holes around the screenprint, so i made a patch and sewed it on another shirt. i wish it looked better... sigh. oh well. it was from a church rummage sale originally.
this one is smaller. it's all painty but i like it. i think i got it for free once?
this shirt was originally an off-white color and too huge, so i wore it a few times in high school. i dyed it earlier this summer. and then finally resized it. and now i'll wear it. hoooray!
i spent most of the morning working on a tank top i made up. it took a while to figure it out, but i really like it. plus it's made up of two of my favorite shirts from high school... sigh. it's so hard to get rid of awesome old shirts... i have some handsewing to do to finish it. i'm pretty good with a sewing machine but it doesn't always do what i hope it will do...
