Grab your t-shirt and turn it inside out. Get everything where it would be if it were being worn correctly.

Sew up the arms about 1/2 inch on the outside of the seam where they are sewn to the body of the shirt.

Sew up the neck about 1/2 inch from the bottom of the shirts collar.

Before turning the shirt inside out, cut off excess sleeve material and throw aside for something else.

Now, last part before turning the shirt right side out. Take the bottom hem of the shirt and fold it up about 1 inch all the way around. You're going to sew this hem to the shirt all the way around the bottom of the shirt leaving a 1 inch gap to insert the drawstring into later.

When you turn the shirt right side out, it should look like it was made for Cousin It from the Adams Family. You won't see the neck or arms. In essence, if it looks like it's made for a potato, you're on the right track.

I enjoy visiting the dump to look at, and take, all the free stuff people throw away. It's a lot of fun. I like Xbox live cus it's the best.
