Shirley, if you get busy - you could make some for you upcoming market - and they would be great sales for you from a different group of ladies.

That is great Shirlene! Thanks for sharing! It looks more like a teen/young adult than an older person like me but that may be because I have never liked frills, fluff, and modern girly items. Boy, am I showing my age!!!!!!! I guess I have been very plain all of my life! I also just had one son and zero daughters. I made his clothes(alot of them), but not all, until he got to old to want to wear them. I did sew for the family and friends but my Mom had to have a couple of new outfits every couple of months right until the end. She kept me on my toes all of the time. She was the real dresser in the family! I do not think I ever heard her complain about a single thing I ever made for her. This was a lady that used to buy all of her clothes at the highest end stores when she was working with Bell South all of her life until retirement. I think the ladies she worked with and Mom also like to compete with each other... Of course, Mom always gave me free will with everything I made for her. I picked out the material and the patterns and she paid for the material.

Christine, the great thing about this is - that they don't even have to be good t-shirts. Can't wait to see what you do with them.

I just made some scarfs for the grandkids. I cut 2 pieces of fleece 5in by 45". One was solid the other was a print. I sewed them down the middle. 2 1/2" on each side. Then I cut every inch down both sides of the center seam. For the grandson, I cut a solid piece 11" by 45" On the bottom of one I embroidered a monster face. I will put pic up after the grandkids wake up from naps..

Shirlene, thanks for sharing with us. I think I will make one for the 18" dolls and see how it looks. My t-shirts are extra small but I think it would be just right for a doll. Sounds like fun.
Hugs, Judy

Thanks for sharing this scarf info ... will try these out. However, I must add that the recipe section really DREW ME IN!! I have been looking at the videos and recipes for about an hour, and I am getting hungry again. Thanks again, and I'm off to look at (and copy) some more recipes.

Thanks for this link. One of our local sewing shops has advertised a class for $40.00 in making these. I love the internet. You just saved me money. Thank you Shirlene.

Thanks Shirlene, Did I hear right, she was using jersey knit T-Shirts? Does it matter? I wonder if cotton ones would also work for this? Does anyone know?

Lyn, I think cotton would work wonderfully.

I've seen similar to this - but wow - how easy and we can recycle something that would otherwise might end up in the rag bag!
Thanks!
