    This is very helpful. After two years of COVID lockdown, I knew I had put on some weight, but when I tried on my work clothes for returning to the office, EVERYTHING - blazers, skirts, dresses and blouses were a size too small!! So I’m going to try my hand at alterations, as well as trying to lose weight, lol.

      That’s so true with me as well. I have piles of clothes I want to remake. I hope it will work out for you. I am not an tailor, I did this for fun as a challenge to make my old unworn clothes wearable again. I also do my alteration on a least favorite shirts that have the color and material I like that way if I mess up, I won’t be upset. If it turns out good I’ll be extra happy. Good luck!

    However, not everyone has a serger to overlock the edges. Some of us have to make do with hemming by hand.

    You could always buy some matching material, or for your white top you could buy some eyelet material to make a peplum or gathered tier for the bottom...

      It’s up to individuals. My shirt was a shopping mistake and not worn so I decided to play and transform it to something I could wear and love.

      😅I'll take it as a complement. I am new to sewing and like to experiment and play with design ideas I have in my head. I hope people will be inspired to try different ways to have fun sewing. I had fun doing this transformation.

      I think she cut a couple of inches off the bottom of the shirt and used it to create an insert/side panel. Looks like she also took the darts out…it is difficult to see given that the fabric is white…my understanding anyway✌️

      You can keep the length by using a separate piece of fabric that is not part of the garment to add width.

    It’s not actually possible to tell which bits you are cutting for instance I thought you’d found an old sleeve or something somewhere and were chopping a bit off and what is that thing under the sleeve, the funny sticky out bit? I suggest that if you can’t speak you put more explanatory text on screen so that people know what you’re doing
