Grit n' Grind Made Girly

You already know we are big Grizzlies fans. And you are also aware we have the prissiest little girly girl ever. Well, sometimes being a sports fan and a princess is hard. In a world of oversized t-shirts and jerseys sometimes you just need a good ruffle, am I right? So Mommy intervened.

I started with an XL Grizzlies playoff shirt from last season that a sweet friend donated to the cause.

Then I sliced off the sleeves. (sorry I forgot to do step by step pictures, but you can find this idea on Pinterest OR just picture it in your head, it really is too easy to do.) 

Then I cut a straight line across the top directly below the neck hole.

Then I hemmed the arm holes and sewed them together a bit to make the opening smaller. I folded the top over and sewed straight across to make two columns to feed the ribbon through that became her straps.

I also got a coordinating piece of Grizzlies blue fabric and made a ruffle that I added around the bottom

And, Ta-Da!

Look how happy she is, the picture is blurry because she wouldn't stop twirling in it!

Sassy pants.

Go Grizz!
