Description
It had an old green long sleeves man’s t- shirt hidden in a closed, and inspired by Alexi’s blog ( http://mymamamadeit.blogspot.com/2009/07/another-version-of-jersey-ruffle.html ) I decided to make a ruffled sleeveless Girl’s t- shirt.
I’have no pics of what the t-shirt looked like.
I have used a t-shirt I liked as a pattern. I narrowed the sides, cut out the sleeves and hadded the ruffles on the front. Under the central ruffle are hidden the buttonholes.
Material Notes
Cotton jersey from an old t-shirt

I did nothing because jersey didn’t fray!!! Is very simple, I think whit another material would be different…and I’m not expert, maybe someone else could answer you
