Tank Top Refashion

You know those tank tops that have a cute pattern, but just don't look right on top? Yup, I have a few of those. They're such a comfy material and would be perfect for skirts. Well, whatdoya know? I tried it out. Easiest refashion ever. I'm sure of it. If you find one easier lemme know because I'm definitely convinced!

Step 1 in this easy peasy refashion, cut the spaghetti straps off. (Who came up with the idea to name these things spaghetti straps?! I'd also like to know that if you find that out, too!)  


Step 2 Turn inside out and put that puppy on! Take the top and pull it over making the waist even horizontally and pin once on each side and once in front and back. Take 'er back off and sew!


 Step 3 Put 'er back on! It should be a little big at the top so that it doesn't fit perfectly. Pinch each side with your fingers to get an estimate of how much you should take it in. Mine was approximately an inch on each side.

Step 4 take 'er back off (sorry for the on and offness! I'm just helpin' ya get your exercise!) Pin diagnolly making an angle for your waist to your hips then sew.

Step 5 For the last time put 'er back on! (but turn right side out this time!) And voila! Easy peasy lemon squeezy!
 Awe, Boo Bear is sawing logs! He's
not supposed to be on my bed
though! But who could resist. I mean,
look at him!

Here's another easy peasy skirt I made. I'm thinkin' Easter egg huntin' skirt! Whatdya' say? :)
