A little t-shirt refashion

I'd accumulated two beautifully bright but misshapen t-shirts sometime in the last year and a half, and had been hoarding them because I couldn't bear to part with their bold colors.

Don't mind my creepy pink toe...

Well! Yesterday, I finally executed the refashion. I'd been hoping to use the top 1/3 of the blue with as much of the pink minus the sleeves as possible, which ended up being a good strategy. I finished up by using the rest of the blue by folding it in half and making a bottom band.

I'm going to wear this all the time! I love it. It's cheerful and kind of sporty. It also fills a much-needed gap in my wardrobe: short-sleeved (but not sleeveless) shirts that look good with jeans and can be worn to the office. I don't think I'll get to the point where I'm buying used t-shirts specifically to refashion them, but I feel emboldened to tackle more of my cast-off pile!
