Refashioning: Anime Graphic Dress


Here is another graphic added to an article of clothing refashion. I like this one a lot.

I bought this T-shirt years ago in Korea, but the bottom hem was coming out.



I got this dress from Goodwill.



Here is the problem with it. The grommets were coming out.



See? 



Cut the graphic out.



Spray adhesive time.



Okay....this was the annoying part. Because the graphic was kinda rubbery, the needle wouldn't do a zigzag (aaaaand Blogger just deleted my picture), so I basted it on.



Then I turned it upside down and zigzagged it that way....Following the basting.




Finished.





The End!

Cartoon Colorblock Shirt

Here is a quickie I did one day. 

I bought this shirt from Rue 21. It's a really simple, stylish, easily copied design.



I had some stretchy fabric with "Blondie" cartoons all over it. Actually, it is fabric used to make school book covers, but I really like it and want to wear it.



Before I cut around it, I folded about 1 1/2 inches down from the top of the shoulder and folded a triangle portion in from the bottom of the side seam. If you saw my post about making a jacket, you will understand why I did this.



I cut around it.



I had some left over silver fabric from another shirt I refashioned from an old lady shirt, but I forgot to post it. Anyways, this is the left over part.



For the back, I cut out some black polyester jersey. Notice that I added the portions I stole from the front onto the shoulder and bottom seam area.



Here is the completed shirt....sideways, because that's how Blogger does it sometimes.











The End!
