Something I Made... and Loved

As much as I love sewing and crafting, I decided a while back not to waste my time making what I do not really need or what nobody around me needs because you see,  time is very precious and a tiny fraction lost or wasted could not be regained.  Ever.

DIY: An Adventure In T-Shirt Re-fashioning

Maybe the title should have been T-Shirt to T-Top or T-Shirt to Convertible T-Top (if there's anything so called). So last saturday, there I was looking at  Betty and thinking of how to put her through her rounds and I just happened to remember coming across this ''old'' T-shirt belonging to darling hubby while I was rummaging in our closet 2 days ago. Couldn't remember the last time I saw him in it and I decided to put it to some  good use. (Didnt wait to obtain permission, though; he arrived after I finished and I even got him to take a few blurry pictures which I decided not to share here..lol)

Meet Betty...

Warning: This post is actually ''2 in 1''!   Number One   I first met Betty in September, 2012 at a time I needed a friend to encourage my latest exploit / passion.   Immediately I set my eyes on her, we took to each other like fish to water and I had no choice than to bring her home with me; providing the much needed shelter and a safe haven from the extreme loneliness she must have endured.   She had since found a permanent abode with me. I see her everyday and we commune, heart to heart at least once in a week.    She has been faithful, never complaining no matter what she is subjected to, ever cheerful, tough and dependable.    Sweet sweet old Betty.   Meet her after the cut.
