T-shirt Tuesday

Hello hello! It’s late on, on Tuesday, but I didn’t forget my T-shirt Tuesday post. As normal, I’m going to showcase the tee I wore today, as well as update you on last week’s project tee.

This here is the t-shirt I was wearing today. The design is called The Fandom School and its by someone called saltnburn. You can find the design for sale on Qwertee. It’s a very clever design, featuring fandoms of Supernatural, Doctor Who, Sherlock, Hunger Games and of course Harry Potter. The slogan at the bottom is J.R.R. Tolkien.  I love this t-shirt as its just a combination of geekiness.

And then onto my project…

Last week I told you about this t-shirt called Throne Fighter. It’s by DrewWise and can be found in various places such as Red Bubble, Ript Apparel and TeePublic. I decided since I didn’t like the fit of the shirt (I love the design) that I’d upcycle it into something new and with the Game of Thrones Exhibition tomorrow, what better time was there? Since I made a dress last time, I wanted to go for something different. As such, I made a hand bag this time and this was the process.

First I cut off the sleeves and then I cut slits into the bottom of the t-shirt. After that I pulled on each slit, making a sort of noodle out of each. Finally I tied each tassle in pairs, front and back, in a double knot. This gave me the basics for the bag. After that I just made a few alterations to the sleeve holes and the straps, adjusting it to look right. This is what I finished up with!

And here it is, my completed Game of Thrones back which I will be taking with me to the O2 tomorrow. I’m really pleased with how it turned out and I can’t wait to try it out!

Pop back next week to see another showcase tee and I’ll pick out my next project t-shirt too.
