black top

Well it's been a while, and I can't even claim to have been very busy crafting but I'm starting again with this rather simple project. I had a plain black long sleeved hooded t-shirt that I made last year. It was very boring so I transformed it. I used an image of my wonderful boots (thanks Ren) transferred onto iron-on image paper and material and sequined lace from an old bolero that was wonderfully pretty but didn't actually fit. The lace went round the hood and the cuffs and I frayed the dark burgundy lining fabric and transferred the image onto it before sewing to the top and embellishing with beads. I even changed the sides of the top with some chiffon to make a handkerchief hemline.
