two ugly tee shirts=one awesome hoodie!

today was an unbearably hot indiana summer day, and my house is sans air conditioning, so i decided to hide out in the cool sewing room in the basement. i got bored, and being surrounded by sewing supplies i decided "meh, ill make something." so i went to this site ( http://www.craftster.org/forum/index.php?topic=100217.msg949724#msg949724 ) and made this out of two teeshirts i had lying around. and i have to say, it's one of the best things i made

[EDIT sheesh none of the links worked. you'll have to refer to the reply below to see them. man, im a senior member and still fight with the images.]

stroke my ego, or bash it on the sidewalk, either way let me know what you think!

 

pfft see what i mean. none of those worked.
let's try photo bucket

that was the most entertaining thing i've looked at in a while seriously, i wanna make a hoodie now and both were incredibly cute, love it

 

oh woops.. i just looked at the tutorial that hoodie you made in those photobucket pics is also really good! looks great

 

heh thanks, i was fighting with the photos. i wish i was clever enough to make my own pattern. but i didn't follow the tut to the letter. just kind of used it as a guide line. by the way WOW fast reply!

 

p.s. sorry for for taking up so much space in your thread, but to link photos from the web, if you have a pc and not a mac, try right clicking your mouse and hitting 'copy image location' and using that in the brackets. i'm not sure how to do it on a mac...

 

i have a pc, but im not very computer savvy. that's why i need to go to school for it lol

 

wow, very creative

 

stellar work

 

Cool.

 

aw wow I want one!

 

This is the first thing I'm going to do when I finally get my sewing machine to work! Great job!

 

That's awesome. I've hit a block road with crafty things lately. But I think I might make a hoodie now too. Also that's a amazing sewing room.

 

ha, thanks guys!
that sewing room is my mom's baby unfortunatly, it became messy and unused since my dad died, so one day, or week i should say, i went down there and completely re-did it, cleaned it and organized it, and now its my little sewing nest or it was, before i went to college. now i miss it.

 

Awesome idea! I have a Led Zeppelin t-shirt I love (images from their third album cover) but it was HUGE on me. So now I am turning it into a hoodie! I will post pictures when I am done.

I was going to try and do it sans zipper, but it's a tight fit over my head. I'm thinking I'll have to go with the zipper.

Great job on yours, by the way.

 

Awesome!

 

that's so cool! and also the sewing room! I want one....

 

very nice work

 

i love it, thats so creative. i wish i could come up with stuff like that, but instead i just look on here and borrow ideas. i am so making on.
