They're made from one of The Boys old T-shirts, from SpunOut a few years ago. The heavy long sleeved cotton top was great for playing with fire, but not so great for the rest of the time.
I think it would be a good way to reuse t-shirts with some meaning, but as many have pointed out, the cost of elastic in Australia is quite prohibitive for making a full drawer full. That said, I just found this place which might be slightly better...
Great use of a T-shirt! And that elastic is a really great price - had never heard of Catherine's Place, so thanks for the tip.
ReplyDeleteGreat tip on the elastic! And nice work for your first pair of undies- way to recycle a top :D
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of using old t-shirts and I think they look great for your first pair!
ReplyDeleteI was quite impressed with the fit straight off the pattern. Will try out that place and report back!
