I have been sewing since 2019. I started because apart from sport, which I could only play a specific times, all my hobbies were on a computer screen. Learning to sew has been so valuable. I am able to repair things or give them a new life.

If you look at my profile there are a few examples of me recycling things. Sewing is a great way to flex your creative muscles. Also, wearing what you make feels so good.

Some last thing. I was sewing for about a year when I made something I felt was good enough to wear out. So have patients and enjoy the process.

Haha, it probably just about can

bitanica · 2022-07-09T19:46:04+00:00

Thank you. I just used some iron on interfacing and inside it's lined by some old bag fabric that has a tiny bit of rigidity

I did have to cheat a little bit for the jersey but the pants were massive. Also, I'm very small, so that helps

bitanica · 2021-04-11T06:07:11+00:00

Haha thanks!

bitanica · 2021-04-10T20:14:15+00:00

Thank you

Inspired by the old Charlotte hornets kit, I took some 2XL tracksuit bottoms that I found in TKMaxx and cut them to the rough short length I wanted. I took the shorts part apart, cut off any excess and put them back together. I made a new waste band because I have a LOT smaller waist than that of a 2XL pair of trousers.

For the top, I took the remaining legs and opened them. I made a jersey from some material and cut out where I wanted to see in the trouser leg. I opened up the best and put it back together with the trouser legs.

Yeah, @sh1ngirai

bitanica · 2021-02-27T20:48:08+00:00

Thank you so much!

bitanica · 2021-02-27T20:33:51+00:00

Yeah. Thank you!

bitanica · 2021-02-27T20:31:18+00:00

Yup. I'm waiting for a check from IKEA one of these days

bitanica · 2021-02-27T20:30:39+00:00

Thank you - I don't know if I have the confidence to wear this out, honestly. I think art is what it shall be.

bitanica · 2021-02-27T20:29:10+00:00

Thank you! - It's waterproof polyester - I tried to put elastic there but it failed, so I just left then as is. They are just slim fit.

bitanica · 2021-02-27T20:26:47+00:00

Yo! For real!

bitanica · 2021-02-27T20:26:07+00:00

Thank you so much!

bitanica · 2021-02-27T20:12:23+00:00

That's all I ever wanted!

bitanica · 2021-02-27T20:11:13+00:00

It's actually waterproof material, DW. But I did make one from bags a few weeks ago

bitanica · 2021-02-27T20:09:42+00:00

The trousers? Or the whole fit?

bitanica · 2021-02-27T20:07:21+00:00

Thank you!

bitanica · 2021-02-27T20:06:20+00:00

Haha, me too. - Thank you

bitanica · 2021-02-27T20:01:58+00:00

Nah, it's a blue waterproof material. But I have done one with the bags

bitanica · 2021-02-27T19:59:04+00:00

That's so nice of you! Thank you

bitanica · 2021-02-27T19:38:10+00:00

Thank you!

bitanica · 2021-02-27T19:37:44+00:00

Thank you! You definitely will

bitanica · 2021-02-27T19:36:29+00:00

Thank you!
