This one was a bit of a bear compared to the top. We started with a UGA shirt of mine that I don't really wear. It was harder to be able to keep all the character since it was printed so close to the neckline. We also didn't really have anything to compare with of Reagan's size-wise, so Mom ended up taking it in once she tried it on. We did ruffles at the bottom again, and made a casing on the top with elastic in it. It was cut apart and taken in at the sides too.
The t-shirt
Taking in the sides, cutting arm holes, and opening up the old sleeves to make straps.
The finished product before we tried it on Reagan. You can't see them well, but there is a ruffle flower on it too.

I have to say, my mom did most of the work on this one. She's a much better sewer than I am and has more patience!

Sooo cute! I wish I was crafty/handy like that. My mom was a serious seamstress. She made most of my clothes as a young child and even made my dad's three piece suits (lined) that he wore to work every day. I, unfortunately, did not inherit that talent or desire. Great job! Hope you're doing well.
Love,
