Today’s adventure in sewing is s up cycled tshirt bag. Took tshirt (hogwarts of course) cut the neck using a plate to a circle.
You then need to remove the arms. I did this by using Stitch ripper however you could easily cut them off (my cutting skills are not good).
Turn your bag inside out and decide how big you want it be. Stitch a line across the tshirt and cut below this stitch. Turn inside out and you have a bag.
You could stitch the handles to neaten it up but well I kind of like the tough edges. Not bad for a first attempt a great present (I gave it to my friend Shona). Also a great way to use old tshirts.
