Look mom! I made it myself.

                        skirt: urban outfitters shirt: (see below)

"Look, mom!

I made it myself!"

That was a phrase that I adapted as a toddler and still use up to this day

because

as my obsession with DIY projects increase so does that amount of times I use that phrase. 

 I combined my love of DIYs and fashion

and this shirt just popped out. 

All I did was take a pair of my dad's old pants 

and an already existing shirt 

and traced that shirt on the pants (twice)

to get two pieces of fabric that looked like half of a shirt! (SURPRISE!)

Using my shaky and beginner sewing skills (no one can see it anyway right?)

I sewed the two shirt like fabrics together and added a little pocket. 

Next time I will try to make it bigger so that I can get in and out of it in less than five minutes. 

Next time I will also ask my dad before cutting up his pants.

He couldn't see the sacrifice his pants were making for the greater good of humanity and all DIYs.
