Day 338: Hip Chicks do T-shirt Skirts!
I agree wholeheartedly with this T-shirt! 🙂
I concur! 🙂
Hip chicks most certainly do do wine. 🙂 However, this hip chick doesn’t do ill-fitting T-shirts! I could have just taken it in to make it more fitted, but I really didn’t feel like wearing a tee today.
It’s skirt city for this one! 🙂 I snipped off the collar of the tee oh-so-carefully!
Snippity Snip!
Then I pinned the sides in a bit.
Just like this!
I stitched each side down…
Whirrrr!
…and cut off the excess fabric (including the sleeves).
Laters!
Now that blah tee is a cute & sexy skirt!
This Hip Chick is currently doing a nice Chardonnay! 🙂
Oh…and check out the back! 🙂
In case you didn’t get the message the first time! 😉
Cheers!

It’s like a removable tramp stamp! Very sexy.
Haha I need that shirt! And some wine….. 😉
Did you do any thing to the top? I’ve made 2 of these, the first I wore exactly like this for awhile, then added a thin band and drawstring. The second one I used an elastic band.
I also just added ruffles to both, I wear them A LOT, my fave things I’ve made so far 🙂
For anyone interested Hip Chicks Do Wine is a Portland, OR based women owned wine store. They are super involved in the whole community and also do a special wine every year for gay pride. For more information check out http://www.hipchicksdowine.com/cms/home.html
When you hem items, do you just measure, say 2 inches up from the existing hem? Or do you see how it hangs on the dress form or on you and pin it that way? I find the second method difficult to do well, but the first method sometimes gives less than desirable results.
I put the dress on me after I’ve taken it in, and put a safety pin where I want it to fall. I allow a couple of extra inches for a seam allowance. 🙂
Hey! This is one of the Hip Chicks of Hip Chicks do Wine! Way to be resourceful and take a plain ole Tee and turn it into a hot sexy skirt!

I LOVE how I’m finding out the story behind this tee! 🙂 I wish we had a Hip Chick store here in Columbia, SC! It sounds so awesome! 🙂
