must have mondays {crafty diy top ideas}

If you are like me you just might have an endless supply of t-shirts that are unflattering in the shape or are just plain boring. I found some amazing tutorials on youtube.com that are beyond easy and I feel like anyone can do them! Some of these ideas are no sew required and if they do require sewing it is extremely minimal. I also found a girl in the 5th video who does a lot of really fantastic tops (not a fan of her fabric choices but you can pick any fabric you want, which is awesome!) her tutorials are non verbal so they are perfect for the international viewers. My absolute favorite is the cowl neck dress made of two t-shirts!

I just got surprised with a sewing machine for christmas!!! I'm just gnawing at the bit to get crafting buuuuut since I'm moving out of state in a week my house is in boxes. I will just have to wait till I get to my new house to bust it open.

Do you think you could do this or have you been rocking the diy for ages?

sewing machines.






Within the next month or two I hope to have a brand new sewing machine! I have looked into a few but not ready to take the plunge until I do a little more research. I am looking for something that would be a great investment because I don't want to have to buy a new one anytime soon; I don't want to spend more than $500. What brand and model are you using to sew with?

{Kenmore Computerized w/ 110 stitch functions}
