    I love these videos where clothes are really transformed instead of just cropping a t-shirt and calling it a day
    this top looks stunning!

    I am impressed that you made this project seem straight forward! When I saw the choices, I thought this top looked really hard. Now it just looks hard-ish! (I'm still a newbie sewer.)

      One thing I found was if you put on an old t shirt you don’t mind getting rid of, cover it & yourself in duct tape (wearing the shirt) so the duct tape fits exactly to your body, you can make a body form fitted to you. Cut it in a little bit apart to take it off, then tape it back together. I hope that makes sense! Then you’ll end up with a diy body form that’s exactly your body!

      @@BlueprintDIY I recently bought a simple long dress (an elongated sleevesless stretch T shirt really) which is great but it needs sleeves like this to make it less T shirty, so I too am here for the sleeves, thank you! (think I might use thick crochet type lace?). Lovely video, and so helpful to see how you measure/mark when using your body! :)
