Start with a shirt that is big. I found a shirt that was a size Large.
Too small for hubby and too large for me, yahoo!
I cut the sleeves off and the collar.
Don't cut the logo!
I turned the cut shirt inside out.
I found a shirt in my closet that is a comfortable fit
and placed it on top to get a good measurement.
I placed pins around the shirt then sewed them. DON'T DO THIS!
I tried the shirt on...it was too small.
Pin about 1/4" to 1/2" away from your comfortable shirt, then sew.
Trim the excess fabric after you sew.
I trimmed the bottom to the length I wanted.
Sewed a hem.
I continually kept trying the shirt on to make sure I liked the fit.
I made some sewing adjustments along the way,
so it was a perfect fit for me.
Then hem all of the cuts for a finished look.
Add a bow.
Tailgate.
Go State!!!
