How to Turn a T-Shirt into a Skirt

By Rain Blanken, About.com Guide

What is now the top of the shirt is going to become the bottom. We need it to be the same width as your bottom piece. To do this, we will measure the top of the shirt with the bottom piece.

Turn the bottom piece of your shirt upside down, as in the photo. Place it over the top part of your shirt. Use chalk to mark through the sleeves and down the sides of your shirt so that your top piece will be the same width as the bottom.

Next we will cut along your markings.
