The deadline is looming people! You have until midnight GMT on the 27th of September to submit your shirt refashions for a chance to win that AMAZING prize package. (Yep that’s 4 days left!) In the meantime….if you’re after some last minute inspiration….
This refashionย by CSews went through several evolutions before she wound up with this final incarnation using several elements from the Stylish Remakes book. If you hop over to her blog she’s reviewed and is running a giveaway for a copy of the book too! You’re welcome ๐
Kate has sure embraced The Refashioners. This is her 3rd shirt refashion for the series!
From a rain soaked pavement to a sun drenched beach! Love Sarah’s shirt turned romper!
The inimitable CarmentcitaB! Winner of the French version of GBSB I have recently discovered! You can see why when you look at this matching dress and bralet combo made from 2 Liberty print shirts she cannily found on sale at Costco!
Love these recycled (shirt) bags by ย @janavalach….available to purchase too!
Gemma landed this awesome plaid shirt and had some fun styling up her refashion by the looks of it! Gemma you like a fun lady to be around ๐
Katie made great use of the Aster pattern for this make. Love the shade of this linen shirt and really MUST check that pattern out…it really does look like a perfect template for shirt refashions!
I was blown away by the ingenuity of these trousers and braces!! How clever right? Great plaid again too!
So impressed by this little combo too…
I am running to keep up with you guys and am seriously chuffed with how much everyone has got on board and embraced this year’s challenge! There’ll likely be another round up of your makes before The Refashioners is done as there are still so many to share. In the meantime, keep getting shirty! 4 days left to get your entries in!
Chuffed to be included here. I have loved this challenge – really got me thinking about refashioning, my list is now so much longer…
It’s been so brilliant watching everyone’s makes come in and so cool that the challenge HAS got people seeing the potential fabric at their fingertips!
Congratulations everyone! All the refashions are really cool!
The standard has been amazing Carmencita! Some very talented sewists out there!
These are all impressive, but those trousers are making me swoon!
Okay…my refashion is done! My post is written! Just need to get the PHOTOS taken! I’m hoping for today for that!
This challenge has been inspiring on so many levels, thanks Portia!
Trousers are awesome! Really gonna struggle to pick a winner!! Looking forward to yours too!
Dear Portia -thanks a ton for putting us up to all of this wicked refashioning action! I have learned a LOT about shirts (and trousers ๐ ) and you really got me started on unpicking clothes and experimenting… The fun has only just started! ?
Ah lady! You are welcome! Deconstructing is such a great way to see how a garment is put together. I really love what you’ve been doing and if that’s what you can do as a beginner….I can’t wait to see what you come up with going forward. I sincerely hope you’ve caught the bug for a lifetime because I honestly think you have some natural talent! Start a blog girl! I’ll follow!
Aaah Portia!! Thanks ๐ Don’t worry, I’ll definitely stick to sewing! In fact, I’m quite seriously playing with the thought of having a blog – I just need to get my stuff together first ๐ I’ll let you know when it’s ready!
