I really love that pattern so I bought it, and it was on sale for only 5 euros! Bad news is the only size they had left was XS and no amount of wishful thinking will squeeze me into an extra-small shirt. So, I knew I had to do some sort of makeover with this one, and then I remembered this pin.
The original picture is from Trash To Couture, and if you aren't already a regular reader of that blog, you should. She makes amazing, fashionable things from whatever old clothes she has. That blog is such an inspiration!
I didn't have crochet trim, but I had some sort of mesh lace fabric that I bought earlier from Eurokangas and I've been waiting to make something with it! I cut open those side seams, added a scrap of lace and sewed the whole thing back together. It took maybe 30 minutes but I have a feeling this will be one of my favorite summer shirts:
Hmm... Can I add lace trims to all my shirts?
