Reply To: How to alter a mens tshirt into a girly tee/tank

I understand. And I’m sure you’re feeling the pressure that once you cut and if you screwed up, then that’s it, game over. It’s a pretty scary feeling which is why it’s a good idea to practice on tshirts that you don’t care about. If it’s a case of taking in the tshirt at the sides, put it on (inside out) and then pin the sides in for a comfortable fit. Take the t-shirt off, mark where the pins are and then baste on your marks. Retry the tshirt on and if you like it, do a regular stitch and then cut off the excess. It’s a safe way to experiment because you can always take out the basting stitches and try again until you get it right. 🙂
