I saw Katie’s blocky t-shirt save using the Kitschy Coo Comino Cap Top pattern and I had to try it. This is Katie’s super cute refashioned t-shirt (click on the image to go to Katie’s IG feed and follow her- she’s awesome!):
I was recently gifted a Sister Morphine t-shirt and thought it the perfect tee to mod, since I actually want to wear this t-shirt. If you’ve never heard of Sister Morphine, they were a band out of Minneapolis from 90s with some raw power. Here’s a song of theirs:
So, it’s not going to surprise you when you see my photos with my refashioned band t-shirt. Let’s just pretend I’m a rocker. K, thanks.
I left off the neck and sleeve bands and did a rolled hem for a more raw look to match my faux rocker presence. I added a stabilizing straight stitch to the neck for good measure.
Now, on to the leather pants I’m wearing! A friend at work gave them to me and they fit perfectly. She said that they were altered to fit her years ago and look at this! They fit me. I owe her a custom dress now! Seriously, these leather pants ooze money. They’re really nice. Adding that to the never ending sewing list!
One more thing before I go. More proof that I’m a professional dork. Air guitar! I will now sign autographs in my favorite lipstick. I’m out!
Yeah baby, yeah. Your air guitar skills in your new rocking tee leave me breathless.
Thanks, dear!
lol – air guitar! Great t-shirt save! Great leather pants too – so nice of your friend to give them to you!
I have a huge t-shirt I got a couple months ago on a show that’s an XL men’s (only size they were giving out) that I’ve been saving to cut up. I’m going to give it puffy girly sleeves because I can. Might do it this week because it’s black and I need another black shirt for back stage on a job that starts Thursday. =)
I could use a couple black shirts for the restaurant too. We’ll see. I’m kind pumped to make more regular clothes for my new job at the dress shop. Weeee!
Looks ace – did you take off the sleeves completely? I’m thinking of doing the same.
ROCK ON!
Best air guitar ever (& t-shirt save too)!
Love this look on you, rocker babe!
hey… thanks for the kudos on sister morphine. first off… that t-shirt wasn’t from the original band… i don’t know what that is but the LOGO is on the cover of the cd which came out in 1987… so they weren’t a 90’s band. they were an 80’s band… google them to check it out. here they were; http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/sistermorphine
