Empire cut Blouse, T-Shirt reconstruction with Tutorial

I’ve been fascinated with all the T shirt reconstruction I’ve seen around, so yesterday, I was bored and decided to make my own reconstruction.. I had a big t shirt (it was my mom’s) I trace it and start cutting… This is how it looks like, I can’t wear tight T-shirts, very often I get stomach inflammation because thanks to digestive problems, and sometimes I look like I’m 4 months pregnant, so this blouse is perfect for those days. Of course I need to perfection it but it wasn’t that bad for my first attempt, what do you think?

well I thought I made a tutorial of how I made it.. please bear with me since English is not my first language, and if something needs corrections or do you need more explanation please let me know, this will also be my first tutorial.

    This is fabulous! The diagram and instructions are very good, I love this style of blouse! I have Crohn’s Disease so I sympathize with needing loose-fitting clothing at times. I look forward to thrifting t-shirts to make this!

    This is a very cute idea to repurpose a T-shirt!
    I had a lot of fun with this one!

    Awesome! Ironically I am actually 4 months Prego… (although I look more like 6) and I have hard time finding shirts that I love, and feel comfortable in. I will definitely be trying this for prego, and post prego, I love the flowy-ness is the shirt, THANKS!!!

    Adorable top! I certainly have to try this since it’s impossible for me to find empire tops that I like.

    Thank you!
