Ik these look quite similar but I try to dress casually

Although I *did* try with ballet flats but in hindsight, Idk why I thought it was a good idea to mix sweatshorts of all things with ballet flats :/

And personally don't think the tight on tight is working?

Anywayyyy, I'd loveee to hear your thoughts on ALL these fits :)

So Im trying to follow this tutorial and whilst doing it, I realized I don't even know what stitches are what

Like the only basics I can do, is forming chains and that's ab it

Like the person was talking ab slip stitches, double, single crotchet, thermal stitches and I was just following the hand movement without *actually* understanding it so half way through it, I just unravelled the bag

I think I should just watch Seperate vids where they show the Seperate stitches first, undertand that fully and then get to the bag vid idk.

Also with the stitch clips, I don't have that so I think I might just use safety pins as stitch clips idk

Erm let's not talk ab the backside, it adds to it trust me

So I have a t shirt but it's really snug and doesn't fit me quite right so I thought maybe adding fabric to the sides would help

I used seam rippers to rip the side seams apart (will be doing to both sides, currently I've done one)

I've measured the gap created by the opening (it's shaped like a triangle so I measured the side of the triangle and the hem)

I drew it out on a piece of paper (I haven't cut the fabric yet) but I was wondering if this seems right?

The hem is 5 inches smth but I rounded it to 6 inches and the side seam is 11 inches and that's how I drew the triangle on the paper

Edit : I added some seam allowance hence why the bottom looks bigger, I added 0.3 inches seam allowance, i didn't how how much to add so just added the amount that I thought looked alright

Sewing the cuffs today ✌️🥹

I attached an elastic to the waistband of some shorts and now need to close the gap

The yellow arrows indicate where I backstitched before for the casing

The yellow lines indicate where I think I should start sewing (normally) from and end

I would then bring the front thread to the back and tie some knots

I feel like that sounds ab right but idk😭
