I did it again....sewed an annoying turtleneck into something cute. Some of you may remember {this} refashion I did. It was so simple to do and I knew I wanted to do that with many of my long sleeved shirts. I love fun shirts and most of my winter things are so boring.....yep, that means I'll be doing a lot of refashioning over the course of winter.
Anyway, here is how I did it.
1.) Just cut out your neckline how you want it.....remember it gets wider because your sew a seam! |
2.) Cut the turtle neck part straight and cut into strips like you see in the picture. (Ignore the birdseed ☺) |
3.) You could leave the sleeves on your shirt but I cut them shorter to make it cuter. |
4.) I didn't take pictures of the other steps but stitch the long strips into ruffels....all one long string.
5.) pin the ruffles on the neckline like you see in the first picture
6.) Sew
See some more pictures of this outfit on {Feminine Modesty}.....but before you leave....

It's really not that hard....so if you find a color or printed turtleneck...you know your options! :)
DeleteSuch a cute idea!
ReplyDeleteWow! That looks like a totally different top!
ReplyDeleteI know! Love it my "new" top!
DeleteGood job. Certainly gives you more options if you are cleaver enough to be able to do this. I am not a fan of turtle necks!!
ReplyDeleteIt's really not that hard to do....and turns any shirt super cute! ☺
