shirt alteration tips from the experienced?

okay, so i got some tees online, 'fitted woman's tees' and theyre too big around (both in chest and stomache area) could i take them in with a sewing machine, or is that complicated being they are fitted? i dont want to pay shipping to send it back but i may have no choice, i guess...... finally got my marley tee... haha


any help would be awesome

 

you bought a marley tee online? wait.....did you buy that from me? i recently sold one....hmmmm....curious...

 

I would think you could go right along the seam line but about a half inch(or whatever you need)~and it wouldn't hurt the shirt~you could do a little bit and see what it looked like?if it looked terrible you could carefully use your seam ripper and take it out~I don't think that you taking it in will change the top that much~even though it is fitted~good luck let me know how it goes?

 

redhot: thanks, thats what im planning on trying, or i just may deal with it being a lil baggy. it just lays weird coming off my boobies, my tummy looks lumpy, its kind of funny actually when i analyzed it.... but i may just deal

i figured if someone knew for sure that i couldnt do it EASILY to a women's fitted tee than id not waste my time



and mountaingirl, i bought it from soulflower, actually. i saw your ebay link, though, nice stuff!

 

oh, ok. i just thought i'd ask, cause i had this AWESOME bob marley t-shirt, but my boobs got too big for it and ended up that when i wore it, Bob's face/smile got all stretched out and weird looking like some demented clown. so i sold it about a week ago on ebay and it would have been funny if it was you that bought it and it turned out being too big. but, it wasn't you, so nevermind.....

 

~*too big t's :: put your groovy too big t on inside out ~ pin it to fit you gathering from the seams ~ sew it up and it will fit like a dream team*~
