Phyllis: What a great idea!! I am always annoyed at logo T shirts because they ALWAYS give you a man's, and the neck is too high, and, like you said, they hang like a bag. I have gotten some shirts from Curves, and I can't help thinking "hello, this is a WOMAN'S gym. Can't you provide T shirts that fit WOMEN?? I am hurrying to my sewing room immediately to begin the SURGERY :>) Michele PS This might be a good idea for the tips file.

What a great idea! I'll have to reconstruct some of my t-shirts now! -Ann

Wonderful way to make a great t-shirt. Great tip.

Not quite instant gratification, but close. I bet you could find some of those 70's tees at garage sales or thrift shops and do the same thing. Thanks for the list of steps on how-to.

The T-shirt is great and this is a wonderful idea, but I really wish I'd known you were at Knoebels--I live very close!

Love it. I have many t-shirts that have been given to me as a gift and I can't part with them. Adding curves to the T-shirt is such a great idea! I am definately going to try this. :)

Fantastic! Now I'm desperate to earn myself one of those tees! I'm a glutton for good old fashioned *enormous* wooden rollercoasters.

Thanks - this is such a great idea - and your t-shirt looks so much better after your alterations! I love it - thanks for the lesson.

Thank you so much for this tutorial -- I am going to get right to work! PS I grew up in Central PA and am glad to know Knoebel's is still around.

Great idea. Never would have thought of this, very helpful information.

Nice job and great explanation! Now you have something you're very fond of that you can actually wear.

Phyllis, thanks for the directions on converting the souvenier t-shirt into a fitted one. I've done this before but your method is very easy.

This is a great idea! Thanks so much for the details. It would never occur to me to cut down a RTW that is too big., but you've given me something to thing about. Shirt looks great in the new size.

great shirt.... unfortunately I found a wayfor myself to get bigger t-shirts to fit me too... gain weight :) but I think I prefer your way much more LOL

Great review - it has given me lots of ideas - I am always buying t-shirts that are too big and long. I have to make a start and use your method - woohoo I will be able to wear t-shirts that have been hanging in my wardrobe for ages!! Thanks

Ann (GT) just pointed me to this review of yours! I like your method too. It's so much nicer to wear a woman's tee than to try squeezing into a shapeless man's tee, isn't it? Very nice results, but you'll never get me to try that rollercoaster!

Thanks for this review Phyllis. I missed it the 1st time around but picked up on it from a link on Debbie Cook's review for remodeling a t-shirt. I'm getting very inspired!

It just makes sense to deconstruct a man's T-shirt and add some curves. Thanks for sharing how you did it - I'm off to give it a try to a T-shirt that I made years ago.
