T-Shirt Flowers

I bought this top on sale at Marshall's but it was a bit too long. The scooped bottom made your eye go directly to my "plump middle". There was no hem, so I cut of the bottom curve:
I took the scraps from the front and back and made 2 flowers:
and sewed them onto the top:
A quick fix - and a great way to divert your eyes from my mid section!!

    Hi Patti,
    That is a great idea! The flowers look as if they should have been there all along!
    Liked your buffet makeover in the previous post too. I hope you find another one!

    Gosh, Patti girl...what a great idea. Looks like it came that way. Since I am OLDEN, I can no longer wear sleeveless tops...that "chicken fat" thingy that hangs when one reaches a 'certain age'. :((
