UPDATE: General consensus was that this was a FAIL. Oh, well. At least it didn't matter that there was egg dye on it before the night was done.
I was rooting around in a closet the other day looking for something and I found a couple of old men's XL souvenir tee shirts that I had come to own by various means. I have all the shirts I need for chores and gardening so before I put them into the Goodwill bin I decided to see if I could improve them and make them into something that could actually be worn in public.
My first attempt is above. The shirt in question is from a trip to Busch Gardens Williamsburg a dozen years ago. I got the shirt to commemorate the fact that I was the only one not too scared to go on the roller coasters. I removed the sleeves and neckband and and used double fold bias tape in co-ordinating colors as trim.
View 1 is as is. Not sure I like the power rangers shoulders.
View 2 is layered over a long sleeve white tee and a black hoodie. It's still cool here. I think I will wear it to egg dyeing tonight.
The other shirt I found is purple (also XL) and says 'Support Your Local Feminist Bookstore' in white. I'm thinking lace and/or ruffles.
