how to make pants out of a shirt

Regula's NDAD Creation

I received this fabulous remake from German-reader Regula and it's something that I want to make immediately!! It's starting to get colder here in Los Angeles (I just put my heat on for the first time this year!) and I'm dreaming about making myself what Regula did. For those of you out there craving a little coziness, this project will be right up your alley!!

I've been following you for quite a while. I think it's amazing how you see potential in any dress you find. I often go to thrift stores hoping to find THE THING that speaks to me: "I want to be turned into something else. Please, help me!"

Case in point...this lovely plaid flannel shirt.

They are not really fashionable but I love them very much.

Old sleeves = new legs!!

It took about 20 minutes to get from shirt to pants, so go ahead! Cut, sew and wear!

Can I please have a set of these immediately!! As I prep for holidays in NC this year, flannel PJs are calling my name! Regula - thank you SO much for sharing this project with us! Such a useful way to repurpose a shirt that just wasn't getting any love anymore. Can't wait to see your next project!!
