I bought a t-shirt!!!
Some people buy dresses but I'm not a dress sort of person!!! I prefer casual or even below casual!!!!
I bought a couple of t-shirts recently in a cheap shop in town. I like them lots but they're very plain - just like me. Plain Jane!!!!
So, what does a tatter do with a plain piece of clothing? Well, of course, they yank out some shuttles and attack it with thread.
I've done a simple split ring braid which I've sewn slightly inwards of the edge. As the t-shirt was cheap I didn't want to spend too much time adding to it as it may well go skanky after a few washes. Mean is what I am!!!
The true colour is shown in the third picture. Well, roughly!

I like making that braid, it works well as a handbag project. Then I use it to decorate nighties etc. So this gets thumbs up from me!
I think it looks nice. Good job on that.
I'm a t-shirt girl, too. I've never dressed one up, though. Lovely work, Jane!
I have a couple t-shirts that need this treatment.
Beautiful job, and great embellishment! It appears that you sewed down every picot. Just the thought of that wears me out!
That's a good idea, Jane. Handbags.
Every picot but it doesn't take long.
LOVE this! I thoroughly enjoy embellishing LOTS of things with my tatting: sweaters, canvas grocery bags, quilting blocks, etc. And, I really don't mind sewing down the picots either - seems therapeutic to me.
Wonderful decoration for that shirt!! :)
Great way to jazz up a plain T-shirt. Looks very proper.
So attractive.
