T-shirts are amazing as a craft material. You can turn them into all kinds of things, including tweaking them into much more fashionable shirts. Reconstructed clothing projects are near and dear to my heart because I love clothes but hate spending money on them. However a lot of reconstructed clothes require at least some degree of sewing skills, an arena in which I’m sorry to say I’m bumbling at best. But this ribcage-like design by Steffi of Cotton Candy Castle is a project I am confident I could handle because it requires just a few stitches at the end. Sewophobics rejoice! I love the spine-like column down the back, and how such a striking design is actaully so simple to achieve! [how to make a ribcage reconstructed t-shirt]
