Free Tutorial – Embellish A Tee With Lace & Ruffles

by Leave a Comment

 
I bought this tee a while ago but never wore it because it had a huge V-neck. I never thought of putting a tank underneath LOL
 
  
 I took a piece of lace (it happened to be the same color!) and cut it off so it would reach a bit over each side:
  
 …….I turned my tee inside out, pinned the lace and sewed it down with a straight stitch:
 
  
 Then I trimmed off the access:
  
This was my tee from the inside:
  
………and this from the outside:
  
I took it a step further and cut some black cotton fabric on the bias (so it wouldn’t fray). I cut 2 strips about as long as my tee was wide:
 
…….ruffled it with my machine, 
 
 
……made 2 ruffles, pinned them onto the tee ………
 
 
………and sew each one on separately:
 Then I added a pretty button……….
 
 
Done!
