Womanizing Men's T-Shirt

ここ6年で10回も着てないであろう、古いけど状態のいいオットのTシャツを私用のTシャツに作り変えました。
以前から何回か使っているTシャツの型紙を使用。
袖から脇をつめるだけの簡単バージョンにしようかと思ったんだけど、肩幅がかなり広かったのでそでぐりの縫い目をほぐして袖も型紙にそって切りなおしてからまた取り付けました。
文字がちょっとかたむいちゃったけど、よしとする。
The Man of the House had this T-shirt for over 6 years but he had probably worn it less than 10 times. So I took it and turned it into my T-shirt.

I used Sewaholic's Renfrew pattern. I cut a straight size 6.

I originally wanted to just use the side shape of the pattern and sew the sides through sleeves for a quick fix. However, the shoulder was just too wide, so I picked the armhole seams and cut the bodice and sleeves properly. I kept the original neck and shoulder seam as is. I also kept the original sleeve hems as well.

I did not use the hem band that Renfrew uses; instead, just added 3/4" to the bodice hem and turn it up for a quick coverstitched hem.

The bodice is slightly crooked but I like the fit and I just got myself an almost new T-shirt for free.
