Sewing Craze

At the moment I have been overtaken by the Sewing Monster.  I have a big convention to go to, and I have no clothes for it or money for clothes, as I have been ill lately.  My solution: re-purposing I thought I would share some of the ideas I've gotten from Pinterest and various blogs about re-purposing clothing to make awesome thingies.  Hopefully I will get up the energy to actually do these things, and I will definitely share the finished projects, as well as some of my own I've come up with.  If it works.

Here are the links and some photos.

Tutorials:


There are 25 ideas, and tutorials here.



Cool, cool, cool. And the great thing about this one is if I mess it up a little I can always use it for work.

There is no tutorial for making this, but I think it would be easy(ish) to make.


 Easy Fix for a Dress Shirt That Doesn't Fit:


Color Blocked Dress

I think I could make this out of tee shirts. 



And that's what I've got so far.  Hopefully I can make some of these. There is a thrift store that sells a bag of clothes for $10! I'm going and stuffing as many tees as I can it that bag and get to sewing. And hope no disasters occur.
