Larry the Cable Guy called....

he wants his shirt back!!!

Having fun with Allie!

BUT...  He can't have it cause I've chopped it up, re-sewed and well...

Here's the story 
 I have always wondered if I could take one of Kris's XXL shirts that he doesn't wear any longer and make it into something the I might be able to wear.  This was a Tommy Hilfiger, 2XL button down that I bought him for Christmas years ago.  He never wore it. Figures.  I ended up wearing it through 2 of my pregnancies  (didn't put it on with the last one, I think I finally realized it wasn't the most flattering) if that gives you any idea of just how "roomy" this shirt was!  So I decided to see if I could make it into a long shirt to wear over leggings.  It was supposed to have sleeves, was going to do something like elbow sleeves, but that was a major FAIL.  So we had to go with sleeveless tank-type top.  Don't know if I'll ever really wear it, just wanted to see if I could do it.
No Logan has the camera!

I'm quite, quite proud of my darts--first time trying them.

I sewed the back pleat down to add even more curvature.

The emblem, no way to remove the sucker.  Oh well,!!

Off to dinner with the fam!!!
