Fashion Forward :: Tee to Tank

I've officially been on bed rest for 6 days.....6 long days.  In my attempt to keep boredom at minimum {{ a difficult task when sitting around isn't your forte }}, I've been surfing the next, pinning on pinterest, and looking for crafts I can do from my couch.  That's when I found this summer-inspired-fashion-forward little craft that actually {{RECYCLES}} and gives me a new wardrobe -- FOR FREE!

This was my inspiration and you can find the tutorial here.

And this is my version:

It took me a little over an hour since 1. it was my first time and 2. because I sewed the hem by hand.  I also didn't cut the 2nd strip from the bottom since I wanted to keep it longer (just in case).  I used black ribbon for the straps to give it a little more appeal and cuteness.  If you have a sewing machine, you could easily make this in under 30 minutes.

I'd model it for you but this 35 + week pregnant belly just won't let me model it properly, lol.  I do think this will make the perfect tee for summer though....especially with a newborn!

Off to make more :)
