T-Shirt Ruffle Re-do

Many thanks to Sachiko over at Tea Rose Home for inspiring my latest sewing obsession--Ruffled T-Shirts! I have made six of them so far, one for myself and the rest for family and friends!


What do I love most about these? They are very forgiving for a beginning sewer.



And though not necessarily vintage, I do find these to be romantic, and of course I am featuring them as I will continue to be blogging about all of my creative adventures here at Vintage Pollyanna.


There are several tutorials over at Tea Rose Home, I myself like Ruffle Shirt Tutorial #2 the best!

Thanks for visiting, and be sure to check out these fabulous Monday Link Parties!

  3. I love tea rose home too! These turned out great! My sewing machine is broken but I just bought 6 new t's just for refashioning! Can't wait to get started! I'd love it if you stopped by Topsy Turvy Tuesdays! http://imtopsyturvy.com

  8. Hi Sara, I purchased them at Old Navy during their essential sale. The shirts were $5 each (regularly $10).

  9. So cute! I love t-shirt refashions and will have to try one of these!

    I noticed my button necklace is one of your August tutorials to try. Awesome! Be sure to stop by and let me know when you have finished. I would love to check it out. And soon I want to do a post about projects others have made using my tutorials (although I only know about three of them).
