- DIY Y2K Cami Tank Top - Easy how to thrift flip from a t shirt - Sewing Tutorial NO SERGER !
↓↓ Detailed steps bellow ↓↓
Supplies:
-t shirt
-elastic
-pins
-scissors
-2 colours of thread (put onto 2 bobbins as well)
-sewing machine
Step 1 - pin down the elastic to form the neckline and detail. Try it on
Step 2 - cut out the front piece of your cami following along the seam of the tshirt, the seam of the arm holes, and the new neckline you just created with the elastics. Leave a little extra seam allowance on the neckline because this part will be folded over and you will lose some fabric.
Step 3 - cut out a square from the back of the shirt
you will now have the two front and back pieces of your cami
Step 4 - unpin the elastic details as they were just used as a guide.
Step 5 - pin a new single piece of elastic along the neckline. RIGHT sides facing together and if your elastic has a fancy detail make sure the detail is facing down.
Step 6 - zigzag stitch the elastic down, trim excess fabric, mark center front with a pin, fold over elastic so that the fancy detail (typically picot edge) is facing up, pin down so that it is easier to iron, iron garment, and zigzag again making sure that you are using a white top thread. In this step I like to use a bobbin that matches the elastic so that it looks less messy on the inside. This is not necessary.
Step 7 - sew a diagonal straight stitch where you market the center front, this straight stitch will create the "V" of the neckline
Step 8 - pin down the decorative elastic and using a blue top thread (again, blue bobbin will show on the inside of the shirt while white will show less on the inside) zigzag stitch the elastic detail onto the shirt. Make sure to over lap the two elastics at the V of the neckline (this will later be covered by a bow)
Step 9 - attach the back and front pieces together with a white zigzag stitch. Start from the bottom hem to make sure that the two hems (that are already hemmed on the tshirt) are lined up. If the top pieces don't line up, not a problem, just trim with some scissors so they create a straight line. During this step make sure to try on the shirt, you can take it in more on the sides for a tighter fit or leave it how it is. I like to trim down the side seams to about 1cm and then do another zigzag stitch to secure.
Step 10 - now place elastic alone the sides and the back. You can decide you want to reshape the back of the cami (I made mine a little lower in the back) or leave it how it is and keep the straight across shape. copy attaching the elastic as in Step 6
Step 11 - hand stitch on the bow
Step 12 - placing right sides together straight stitch the elastic strap to the front of the cami. trim away bulk. fold so that the elastic strap is facing up and hand stitch for this to stay in place
Step 13 - try on cami and pin where you would like the back straps to lay. I like to use a straight stitch and stitch a little square to make sure the strap is on nice and secure. Trim away excess fabric to tidy it all up and you're done ! - แนวปฏิบัติและการใช้ชีวิต

hello, I want to learn to make clothes but I do not know how to sew or hand stich. Do you know any good tutorials or do you have one? :)
Hi! Can I do the same thing but with a long sleeve shirt? And ty for the tutorial!
Yes ! Absolutely. Just do the same elastic technique around the entire neckline. Thank you for watching 💕💕
is 10mm picot edge elastic enough?
yes ! 10mm is a good width for the elastic !
Where did you get the little bow? I looked in hobby lobby and joanns fabric store but neither had any
I would check on eBay ! They always have a bunch of options and not necessarily all in bulk. Hope that helps !
Where did you get your elastic band?
I found the cheapest place to buy elastic was eBay. just search "picot elastic" Hope that helps !!
@@SohoSeamstress thanks!
hii, could you use lace instead of elastic?
Hi ! It would be best to find something with stretch (so that you can get a tight fitting shirt). A stretchy lace would be great ! If you can’t find anything with stretch, you’d have to make it a little looser so that you could get it on and off ! Hope that helps 🥰
@@SohoSeamstress okay, thank you soo much 😊
💞💞💖
is the elastic decorative or does it affect the fit of the shirt?
It makes the top fit more snug and allows you to continue using the stretch of the T-shirt. You could do as strictly decorative but then you would lose the stretch of the t shirt and it would fit differently ! Hope that helps 🥰
how long does this take to makeeeee
You could definitely do it in under an hour !
Where do you buy that pink elestic?
Most stores that sell notions will have it or you could try online (Amazon probably and eBay). Google picot elastic. I Hope that helps !
can i use normal lace and not elastic?
You can ! If you use something with no stretch you’ll have to make the top less fitted because otherwise you won’t be able to take it on and off. But for a looser fit any lace would work !
@@SohoSeamstress Thank you so much!
The music sounds like Christmas Story on Christmas Day opening scene
Can you do it without a machine?
The zigzag stitch is important in this project to create the stretch and that stitch would be time consuming without a machine. But I’d love to think of a way to do it without ! I’ll try to make another video on it !
@@SohoSeamstress Tyy
I'm gonna try this but what can you use if you don't have a sewing machine?
If you have the patience you could hand sew - if you do this you'll still have to make sure to do a zigzag stitch ! Good luck !
you could also buy a hand sewing machine there usually cheaper!
Love the teaching the music is a little depressing
What sewing machine is this??
I have a singer heavy duty 4432 and I love it !!
