Tuesday Tutorial - Repurposing Old T-Shirts

Do you have an old t-shirt that you really love? Maybe it's the wrong size or it has a tear and you can't wear it anymore. Today I'd like to show you some ways to repurpose those beloved t-shirts.

This looks so cozy, a rag quilted t-shirt pillow. I can only imagine how soft it is. You can find out how to make your own at fiskars.com




Need a quilt to go with the pillow? www.sewcaroline.com shows us how it's done.




This one is a really cute no-sew project. Turn your hubby's t-shirt into a fitted shirt. Instructions can be found at www.connectthedotsons.blogspot.com




I've seen a lot of bags made from t-shirts, but this one is really cute. I especially love the handles. The tutorial can be found at www.chichideehandmade.blogspot.com



We have a a tutorial here at www.byyourhands.com It's a pillow made from a t-shirt. I made these for my boys a couple years ago. They reminded me the other day that it's time for new ones.

Maybe you'll think twice before you toss out the old t-shirt.

Thanks for joining us today!
