Cut apart an old tee shirt

O.O' Wow... You'll never believe this, but my mother has a shirt that looks almost identical hanging in'er closet... last time it was worn was like 1989 (<-I think- may've been 87-88). Either way it scares the crap out of me to remember it. O.o GraTz.

 sweet sewing skills, man, but you do really need glowsticks, and LASERs, lots of LASERs, and smoke floating around...just to complete the look...perhaps I would also accept the surface of Mars, or Europa...but, never-the-less, sweet :D

Drive a million miles out to the middle of nowhere. Make sure there's a lot of dust -- fine alkaline dust if possible. Dance all night.

hot hot hot! ps. traditionally, sleeves are put on after the body of the shirt has been sewn, mostly because sleeves have to be eased a little. YMMV
