Maxi is the new mini

I'm tottally obsessed with maxi skirts right now, I want a royal blue one desparately but I haven't find the perfect match yet. So just a few tasters with different style, cutting, length, shape and colour so everyone can choose..

Don't stop till they reach their dreams

I love creating things, reinterpreting old, unworn, unused stuff even for my own happiness or for someone else's. This time I made a tee for my best friend in occasion of a concert we were attending at.

For primary commodity I used a big unworn white Levi's shirt my father gave me.

I cut off all the hemmed edges at the bottom, at the collar and at the sleeves too.

First I wanted to make a tee with sleeves but then I decided to cut them off too. And it looks way much better in this way. I marked the line through I had to cut with a textile chalk. It's hard to see in the photo so I strenghtened it in the computer. I stapled the tee with pins together not to move and cut the unwanted parts off.

I printed the photo which I wanted to use in black and white and I sticked it to a cartbord to strenghten it.

I strained the tee to the photo and drew it on with a black textile marker.

At this point my textile marker got empty so I had to interrupt my work and travelled to buy an other one.

I marked the proper line, stapled the back and the front together with pins and started to fringe.

My friend wore it at the concert last thursday and we had a chance to meet and sign it with Pierre and David from Simple Plan, the ones on her shirt. How lucky is she!
