Clothing refashion

A plain and boring t-shirt into a much more interesting one. I think so, anyway!

And the walking foot and jeans needle on my sewing machine made sewing through all those layers a walk in the park. I kept raving about it. Honestly. I think Don was very close to rolling his eyes!

Mmmmmmm.
