To see the step by step instructions and photos click here.<\/a><\/p>\n

What youll need for your Ruffled Tube Top:<\/h2>\n
    \n
  1. 1 L or XL T Shirt<\/li>\n
  2. Elastic<\/li>\n
  3. Pins<\/li>\n
  4. Scissors<\/li>\n
  5. Safety pin<\/li>\n
  6. Measuring tape or ruler<\/li>\n
  7. Sewing machine<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    \"Ruffled
    \nStep 1<\/strong>
    \nTurn your tee inside out.\"Ruffled<\/p>\n

    Step 2<\/strong>
    \nFold the bottom hem of your tee over 5 \u00c2\u00be inches and pin. This will be the ruffle on the top of your tube top.\"Ruffled<\/p>\n

    Step 3<\/strong>
    \nUsing your sewing machine, sew a \u00c2\u00bd inch seam on the top of your tee. Be sure to leave at least \u00c2\u00bd inch open to insert your elastic.
    \nMeasure your elastic around your upper chest, pull it a little tight and leave \u00c2\u00bd inch to an inch extra to overlap and sew.\"Ruffled<\/p>\n

    Step 4<\/strong>
    \nAttach your safety pin to one end of your elastic and feed it through your seam.
    \n\"RuffledOnce your elastic is all the way through sew your 2 ends together and sew your seam closed.\"Ruffled<\/p>\n

    Step 5<\/strong>
    \nCut the neck off making a straight cut across what will now be the bottom of your top.\"Ruffled<\/p>\n

    Step 6<\/strong>
    \nCut the sleeves off of your tee.\"Ruffled<\/p>\n

    Step 7<\/strong>
    \nPin your sides and sew a straight seam down each of your sides. You can take your sides in as much or as little as you want.\"RuffledTrim the excess fabric off after you sew your seam.\"Ruffled<\/p>\n

    Step 8<\/strong>
    \nI left my bottom hem a raw edge, if you do this be sure to tack the ends of your side seams well, so they dont unravel.\"Ruffled
    \nOr if you prefer you can hem your top as     shown here.<\/a><\/p>\n

    Summer is right around the corner and with the warmer weather youll need lots of fun Summer tops. You can pick up t-shirts in every color usually for less than $7 each, so you can make a bunch. You can wear it with anything from shorts to a skirt to jeans, dress it up or down and they make great bathing suit cover-ups too.
    \nThe only thing I need now is a tan! OMG not even Photoshop helped this time!<\/em><\/p>\n

    There are so many ways to personalize this project you can even make mini ones for the girls. Let me know what you do with yours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
