Recycled check T-shirtStill no dino plushies. It was raining the whole day yesterday so I stayed at home and made something else for Sidra.
The T-shirt is recycled from my old T-shirt dress, bought in 2006 in Indonesia. My hair was pretty short at the time! The picture was taken in my office’s studio, hence the black background (the advantage of working in a fashion magazine).
Actually the dress was still in decent condition, but I’ve never worn it anymore. Sometimes I feel a bit guilty when I don’t wear something that I didn’t make myself. Is that strange?
The material is stretchy but a bit thick, and it would make a good T-shirt for cooler weather. I used the same pattern as the striped T-shirt.
T-shirt pattern is from simple+one

Its so nice the t-shirt! And I am the just like you .I only like to wear the clothes i make my self,but i havent been sewing for so long, so the sewing machine is going warm in the evenings!!
oooo I dig your short hair :D
whoah, cute clothes, but WHOAH, did you cut your hair? how did i miss this? i LOVE it!
EDIT: yeah, when i drink too much tea i speed read. i get it now :) this is a great refashion, i may have to search my closet for the kids in my crew…
Haha glad that you liked the hair though!
Actually I used to always have short hair, sometimes shorter than that. I started to let it grow a few months before moving here, 3 years ago :) Now I can’t cut it short again because Sidra will be angry, he likes me in long hair!
great refashion. he looks awesome.
I liked the dress, but I think that the fabric will have a better life with this T-shirt. It looks nice on him. You are going to have him become a rockstar!
Well, he often says that he wants to be Maikeru Jakuson (Michael Jackson)! :D
Thank you Laurwyn!
Really nice T-shirt. Lucky Sidra.
