Hi Kathy!

I didn’t do anything to the sleeves, just the neckline. I hope you try it!

You didn’t tell about adding ruffles to the sleeves. I’m afraid to do anything on clothes without some direction. Help!

I went as far as removing all double fabric bits, on the sleeves and the bottom. It is amazing how the shirt feels much lighter and comfy, thanks for giving me the courage to risk ruining my brand new Frida shirt, it is now one of a kind 🙂

In reply to kathi. Will do mine too.....it is a mens t shirt bought from Paris, at a very low price Euro 5, I bought the sequined patch, and as you said the collar is too much high up. Am recycling lots of items in my wardrobe I will do the collar as per your idea THANK YOU from Malta

I’ve done this to nearly every crew-neck t-shirt I own. I remove the entire ribbing around the neck and then cut it into a rounded v-neck in the front. I also trim large boxy sleeves into a more feminine cut. You can also cut slits into the sides of your t-shirts to give it more of a tunic look if the cut is too narrow. I’ve cut so many t-shirts that people have started asking me to do it for them LOL.

Love this!! I was in Waco two Fridays ago and purchased obligatory grey #shiplap t-shirt at MM. Loved the soft material but hated the fit when I tried it on back here at home in Florida. Just read your blog, grabbed my scissors and went to work on my shirt. Modeled it for my husband who said “#shiplapsexy!” Thanks so much for the inspiration 🙂

Love the look, but if you cut through the shoulder seem, what keeps it from unraveling?
