Big Shirt to cute fit shirt

My dad Cleaned out his closet and he had a bunch of old new shirts so I thought I would take them and turn them into something I would wear.


First you will need:
Two shirts or one shirt and matching fabric
Sewing machine
Scissors

First you will need to cut off the top and sides of the shirt (Making sure it will fit you) but don't cut anything off that you want to be on the shirt. (Also you need to make sure to be aware of what is on the back.)

Then cut the hem off where you want the second color/ shirt to be the bottom color.

Cut the second shirts bottom off in the length you desire to be the hem color. Make sure to allow about 1/4 in for seam allowance. (If you are using fabric instead of another shirt you will need to make a hem on one side and allow 1/2 in for your new hem and seam allowance on the other side)

Sew on the second color to the bottom.

Then you need to sew a hem in the second color and attach it to the top of the shirt. (Making a tube top)
(If you want the tube top then you are done) If not you can go on to add straps. For those you will want to make straps out of whatever material you want, hem both sides and sew them on to the shirt. Hope you liked it!

I found that both cloths should be elastic like and stretchy otherwise they wont fit or sew together right. Thank you!
