first before:

so I needed a quick shirt and it was like past midnight, so no sewing machine (dont want to wake the house), and I wanted to use this flash shirt, so I did a cruddy no-sew:


it held up pretty well, actually, through lots of central park romps and long train rides. but I knew I could do better. so I did!


(mirror pics are ESPECIALLY shoddy today, dont know why)
and a detail of the little bow, which I love:

so I was in chinatown the other day and I was like, Haha, Im carrying money, I think I'll buy a twee stoner shirt (you shouldnt let me out of the house with a packed wallet, I do stupid things like buy twee stoner shirts and get tattoos.)]

but I was smart enough to be like "give me the biggest size you have!" so I could make something. and I DID!

a better shot of the ruffles and the lace on the top:

and I LOVE the back:

I used the lace-as-corset-holes method, which Im now going to do ALL THE TIME :-D
I feel semi-productive, what do you think?
