How To Make Ruffled Tops From Old Tshirts

[@CoalNovah1285]

Ahhhhhhh…. Goodness sakes!!! That teeny tiny ruffle totally makes the shirt I love it!!!

[@tmyershandmade978]

Thank you so much 🤗💛💕💛💕💛💕

[@sallyomalley8607]

Oh my goodness, I know my Mom is rolling in her grave because of not creating a proper. even gathering stitch! I however, am cutting up the pile of old tee shirts in my sewing room and creating several of these. What an inspiration, thank you!

[@tmyershandmade978]

Lol I bet she would be happy that you are creating and having fun 🤗💖💛💖💛💖

[@andreaeyzaguirre6208]

The first time I find your videos I thought, what a crazy lady she is. But since I’ve seen your videos, more and more I think you are the most amazing and honest person. Really talented and bold! Love the way you specificity every single step of the process, such a good teacher! And encouraging people to be creative and don’t stop themselves by frightening! So, with every vieo, you got 2 lessons, one on how to make it and one for life approach!!! Love you my favorite crazy lady from KZbin!blessings from Chile,🇨🇱 South America

T-shirts are so square & unflattering but I adore your transformation! Feminine, shapely & unique! Love your work!

Traci has me inspired - go an do it!

[@livinmylife5182]

Hi Traci, just love you and your videos also, you inspire me to sew I just bought a lot of lace items from thrift stores this weekend, and a used mannequin for $25.00 bucks, so I'm getting ready. Thanks so much for the motivation 👌

[@Lynniescorner]

I do love that ruffle. One of my favorite junk journal creators, Cathy, at Cathy's garden, uses crinkled seam binding that looks just like this. After watching her for almost a year, my husband secretly bought it on Amazon from my list. So, part of the 100 yards is going to a shirt I'm making. Adding that ruffle made that shirt spectacular! When you switched pictures it was... WOW! Thank you!

[@tmyershandmade978]

Awww thank you so much! 🤗💖💛💖💛💖

[@l.g.4451]

ADORABLE! I love the appliques on this and the 3/4 trim on bottom and sleeve. So, so cute!

Wow Traci WOW!!! This is so sweet. I love it as a top and as a sweet little baby doll dress. My husband is a big man and he too gives me his old T’s for nightwear . But you have changed all that. No more nightwear 😄I know I say this a lot. But it’s true… you are amazing and too adorable. Love your channel and never ever disappointed.💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

Good morning, Traci! I just wanted to tell you how much you have inspired me! A couple of days ago I shocked my Mom (a profecional seamstress) when I made my first skirt out of jeans (after watching your video). You make it so easy that it seems anyone can do it too. Thank you so much for sharing such great ideas! I am now you fan!🥰

[@ilmariangefou6190]

First of all apologies for not sending greetings before, rather late than never. Wish you both the best ever moments of love, joy, enchantment, all the good things the Universe can offer. Now on this video huge thank you! The tiny ruffles are magic! Sounds silly but yes, still a bit stuck looking at what I have and how to do it with T-shirts. Have already applied your techniques for a couple of lounging dresses and this particular video, yes arms, a big problem with my old dresses and even t-shirts, my arms with age just got wide, no shame about it, that is life, and do not want to discard beautiful designs and fabrics, so you just gave me the tip I needed to widen sleeves and turn t-shirts into lounging dresses. I have so many I might add another layer or two of ruffles to make comfy pieces to wear at home. And some t-shirts I will start turning them into thin strips, some that have designs I do not want to wear anymore. Thank you thank you thank you for sharing this precious tips. May Happiness and Joy be with you always. 💝💖💞💕
