Everyone who knows me knows that I love, love, love making things out of old t-shirts. It’s the most comfortable fabric that I can think of and everyone looks good in a t-shirt. We get so many freebies, and buy so many that remind us of places we’ve visited, bands we’ve seen, and other great memories that I always seem to have piles of them laying around. I also have a habit of destroying my clothing in any number of creative ways, so I love refashioning them into all sorts of things like skirts, tote bags, etc. Luckily for me, my favorite t-shirt recycling queen has a new book out called Generation T: Beyond Fashion: 120 New Ways to Transform a T-shirt
which I purchased from Amazon and has already arrived in the mail. I’ve begun to skim through and noted that even though there are a few similar pieces to her first book, many of the ideas are fresh and inspiring. I’m most excited about making a shrug and a necklace based on her ideas; I’ll of course post my attempt to recreate some of the projects in the book.
