I needed to do a t-shirt makeover. There are so many good ones out there but I really wanted something classy that I could dress up a bit. I saw a great You Tube video by Stitchless TV on how to do a bustle on the back of a t-shirt and I knew I had to try it. I had a black Old Navy t-shirt and a ton of old black and white clothes that I could repurpose along with some cool black trim. The first thing I did was add the pieces for the bustle to the back of the tee. I didn't actually cut the t-shirt as it says to do in the video. I just added the bustle on top of the shirt. When I was done and tried it on it still looked like an Old Navy t-shirt to me. Something else needed to be done... So I cut the neckline into a v-neck and added a couple of scrap pieces from another shirt (part of which I used for the bustle) to make a collar. That was it! The final touch was adding the black trim to the v-neck and the top of the bustle using fabric glue. I don't think it looks like an Old Navy t-shirt anymore. What do you think?
