Fitting Thrifted Shirts for Men



If you are an avid thrifter, don't be sad when you find a shirt fits but is not tailored! Take it in using this simple tutorial.

Materials
Thrifted shirt
Safety pins
Thread to match project
Sewing machine
A buddy!

You need to use the buddy system for this project unless you magically have a dress form of yourself. So make a day of it and partner up! Take the time and line up your side seams if you are taking darts out of the side. This may take a few tries, but once you get the hang of this it's easy.





Big THANK YOU to Cesar for being such a good sport and letting me use him as a dress form. I'm super mean too, and I made him sew his shirt too!
