    it came out too big so I cut it up and made purses for my mom and grandma. It was a good learning experience though.

    Thanks everyone :) The old t shirt thing did make it pretty comfy. Luckily my guy has a closet full of huge promotional tees just waiting for me to hack up and sew back together.
