One of my favourite things to craft is cotton clothes made from copying my favourite tees and tanks. I go and buy meters of cheap jersey cotton fabric and trace my favourite cotton articles, cut 'em out and sew 'em. The edges don't fray and the cut raw edge gives it a shabby charm. Some of my favourite outfits have been made this way in minutes. These are some of the spoils from a crafternoon I recently had with a friend:
A dress made from tracing a t-shirt and elongating the hem.
A sleeveless tee with a cowl, a simple a-line skirt.
Cowl tee, detail:
I also made a few headbands, a tank dress and two pairs of drawstring yoga pants, all in soft cotton and for under $20 worth of fabric.
