Give your old one Favorite shirts one second chance and look at it
How your children carry them on with joy.
How your children carry them on with joy.
From men's shirt to the children's dress
You need:
Discarded shirt, good-seated T-shirt of the child, scissors, chalk, yarn & sewing machine
Directions:
Put the shirt neatly and buttock together and shape the seams. Take a good-sitting T-shirt of the child to be sewn and fold it together in the middle. You put the middle fold of the T-shirts on the middle of the shirt-this is usually the button placket of the shirt. The shoulder seam of the T-shirt must be on the shoulder seam or folding edge of the shirt.
You start with drawing the outline at about the hip height of the T-shirt. From there you mark the outline of the T-shirt onto the men's shirt with a distance of 2.5-3.0 cm.
In the next step, you can draw from the hip height to the lower shirt edge, a diagonal line (A-line).
Now cut the first page. Fold the shirt in the middle to also cut the second page. The already tailored side serves as a template.
Most of the work is done!
Turn the dress on the left, dig up the edges, sew the hem edges of the sleeves and then close the two side seams. Complete!
Tip: In the case of unelastic shirts, the dress, for more freedom of movement, has to be tailored to approx. 2.5-3.0 cm wider than the T-shirt is wide.
