Inspired by http://www.blackfawnart.com/2010/01/recon-tutorial-t-shirt-to-yogalounge-pants.html
This was basically an attempt to try using my great grandmother´s sewing machine after 4 or more stitchless years in a way that would have a quick,though far from perfect final project that I could wear and feel encouraged by.
Since I had 2 free medium Future Farmers of America T-shirts just sitting around from a convention I worked last week, it seemed like a good project.
Time: approx 1 hr
Materials: 1 T-shirt, scissors, sewing machine, thread
Cost: $0
Satisfaction: * * *
What I learned: You don´t need a pattern to sew, but it might fit better if you do. The crotch of pants is tricky to sew. Spend longer on the waistband, it would have made them look much more professional. You can make wearable things in under an hour with an old school Sears Kenmore sewing machine.

I especially love that you now have a full-blown FFA uniform! ;) Ha! And way to go with the sewing! T-shirt material is tricky because it's so elastic. Props to you ;)
