How to Make a skirt out of shirt sleeves
Thread Bangers demonstrate making a skirt from mens button down shirt sleeves. Brooksie from Haute Sew shows us the technique. Start bu Cutting the sleeves off the shirt at the seams. Next split them open at the shirt sleeve seams, leaving the buttons in the middle. Now pin the sleeves together along the raw edge with wrong sides together and sew them. The panels can be made to alternate colors or in color blocks depending on the style of shirts used. The size of skirt can be altered by changing the size of the shirts used, using more sleeves, or changing the width of the panels. To complete the skirt, trim edges and hem to desired length.
