Making Stuff: Baby Gown {Concert T-shirt Refashion}

by This is Carrie on May 16, 2012

I have a new little niece who’s been really fun to sew for.  We are already indoctrinating her to her parent’s country lovin’ ways with a Rockin’ Baby Gown” made from an old George Strait concert T.  Unlike baby shoes, it’s super cute and practical at the same time.

(to “girlify” the pattern a bit, I added an upper puff piece to the sleeve)

Find the tutorial for the Rockin’ Baby Gown HERE.

So cute! I love George Strait too so that makes it even better 🙂

I love it!! The puff adds the perfect touch of girly. I tried to make a shirt from your tutorial using new jersey fabric and I had the most difficult time sewing the neck. I’ve never sewn with jersey before, do you have any suggestions?

Hi, I LOVE your stuff! I’m just now getting into sewing things other than pillowcases with my moms singer sewing machine from the 60/70’s. I was wondering what sewing machine you use and which one would you recommend for beginner projects. I intend to take on bigger projects so I’d be interested in getting a machine that is user friendly but that will also last me a LONGTIME!thanks for your input! -aly

Love your site, especially the Re-Fashioned things. I love creating new from old. I will defiantly be making some of these baby bags from t shirts..

Thanks for sharing!
