About this title: The T-shirt-preferably well-used - is a blank canvas. You can cut it, sew it, twist it, and turn it. You can deconstruct it, you can reconstruct it. Recycle it, resuscitate it, refashion it, and re-invent it. Make it punky, make it funky. It is the perfect jumping-off point, and Megan Nicolay - who knows the my-pride of accomplishment and the pleasure of making something chic and unique (and cheap) shows how to turn an ordinary T-shirt into a halter, a tank top, a peasant blouse, or, for a total transformation, into a T-skirt. Or a hat. Or a Christmas stocking, a drawstring purse, a wine ...

"The best thing about this book is that it doesn't indulge the fact that I'm a terrible perfectionist. These designs are simple and fast, many of them don't even require sewing. I wouldn't wear everything in the book-- far from it-- but as someone who would wear t-shirts every day if they could, it's cool to get some inspiration to mix it up a bit. Design #33 was the first one I made, and I've gotten lots of compliments on that shirt-- which started out as a way-too-big $2 tee from Goodwill."
"This book has a lot of ways to punk out a t-shirt. Many require little or no sewing. They take your t-shirt from casual to ridiculously informal. Not for the top heavy, as many designs are best worn braless."
"I very much like to turn things into other things. Especially my clothing. This book offers not only ideas for creating new/different clothing out of t-shirts, but other items useful around the house or wherever.
There are several photos of the finished product as well as step-by-step instructions. Don't worry about having no experience in sewing. This book will even introduce readers to the basic stitch and offers plenty of no-sew instructions.
Like to try something new, this book also gives ideas for variations. Definitely a must have on the bookshelf, in the sewing room, or even your t-shirt drawer."
