Look I've scrapped a t-shirt

I thought I'd get creative and scrap my own t-shirt, love to know what you think!!

I started off with a plain grey t-shirt and cut the demin part at the bottom from another top, or alternatively you could use the some old jeans or maybe your kids old jeans?? Anyway the tartan fabric believe it or not is from a pair of my boyfs boxers, ha ha!!! Thankfully they were a pair his mum sent down from Scotland that he never wore (well I hope he never wore) and I cut them up, stuck all the pieces on with fabric glue, sewed on a couple of buttons and hey presto here you have it!!!! My PANTS t-shirt, ha ha

I've ordered some fabric from ebay (via Rpoints of course for cashback) and I hope to customise a few more tops and t-shirts, can' wait to get started. I'm not very good at using a sewing machine, hence I stuck most of the pieces on with fabric glue but my mum has promised me a sewing lesson so the world is my oyster!!!

Hi Honey, Well done! Cool Blog! Keep off the biscuits though! Not really cool to have biscuits stuck in the keyboard. We'll have a sewing lesson soon, so I won't have to keep making the curtains!!! Love Yummy XXXXXXX
