You all know those ugly t-shirts you can get for free when you go to some events, the ones you wouldn't dare wear out in public because it has some annoying business logo on it. I have many of those in the back of my closet just going to waste. Here I will show you how to make one of those hideous shirts into a lovely, wearable garment. I only have pictures of the finished product on my pillow and I will try to get some different ones that really show how cool the back looks. It's rather hard to take a picture of your back, you know.

I will have to make my own instructable a little more different, especially the name and my own system of doing this.

I love to sew, as I'm sure you can see from my ibles ;) I also love lawn flamingos, going to the beach, dinosaurs, and doing random stuff.
