Loungewear Revolution- Jersey Romper

September 13, 2011 9:34 am

 On of my favorite things to sleep in is this little jersey romper that I have.  Here’s a way to make your own!

Get two T’s.

Cut the first one off. This will be your top piece.

We’ll use the other one for the shirts part. Fold it in half and cut out a piece as shown. Sort of like oversized underwear.

Here’s what you will have.
Sew the crotch together. I don’t know how else to say that. :)
I also took out a midsection of the top and added an accent piece down the middle.
 Sew the top and bottom together. I sew it and eave an overhang. Then I sew that flap down to create a pocket for the elastic in the middle.
Make a small hole and weave your elastic through.
Now your waist is gathered. See where we’re going with this?
Fold the top over to create a pocket and put elastic through there, too. Also, I forgot to take a picture, but add some straps.
I added some lace around the shorts.
Here is the completed romper. Clearly, no modeling in this get up :)

What an easy way to turn a couple of old T-shirts into something much cuter!
