Refashion Reformations

Every year we receive a few bags of outgrown clothing from friends and neighbours. Sometimes item are more mature than my girl can comfortably wear.

This shirt is an adult small, but it fits my 11 year old daughter well, except that the neckline is a little more plunging than she felt comfortable with.

My children are not very fond of wearing undershirts so instead, I hemmed the three sides of a triangle and then hand sewed it onto the neckline.

It looks great and my daughter loves her “new” shirt.

    Looks Great! I think we’ll be trying this.

    Did I ever show you the finished sundress that I did this to? I’ll bring it over sometime. If I don’t fit into it this summer maybe one of the girls can borrow it if it fits them. I’d like to fit into it again someday, but this summer may be a tad unrealistic. :)
