i had this black cotton scoopneck shirt.
and bought a pleated trim from hobby lobby for a little over $2.00
you’ll need:
1 3/4 yards of black pleated trim
a plain black shirt
black thread
pins
scissors
after playing around with the trim with different designs:
project budget: very low priced
estimated time: 30 mins.
level: beginner
directions:
1. put the shirt on first. (i tried pinning the ruffles first and then tried it on but my chest stretched the fabric and the design was no longer the same.)
2. as you make the trim pattern, pin it as you go. play around with different designs as you please. or just follow my design. ๐
3. sew right in the middle of the trim onto the shirt. there should already be stitches there, just sew over it. sew it the right side so you can see the trim as you sew.
i call it a “ruffle around me top”. ๏ปฟ

This is great! I just love it. It's such a smart idea – Anthropologie would charge like $68 for this! You just sticthced it, right, you didn't use a sewing machine? Nice work!
yaydiy: i did use a sewing machine. i try to avoice hand stitching as much as possible. ๐
and thank you so so much everyone, you ladies are always so kind and i appreciate it a lot.
Very cute- great idea to easily dress up a t-shirt! ๐ Cant wait to try it!
Omg I love this! I will have to buy some pleated ribbon and make this ๐
Super cute! I just made some ruffle t-shirts earlier this winter, but I really like this style too! Such a time saver too to use the pre-pleated trim.
This is beautiful – you did an amazing job with that trim.
Wow.Wow…WOW!!!
I just did a top inspired on yours.
Thanks for the beautiful ideas.
