the only thing that I didn't like about this tutorial was how it wasted a perfectly fine t-shirt to make the fluttery ruffle flowers. I had some thrifted pillowcases on hand, so I decided to use those instead. I made two, and I have the fabric and shirt on hand for a navy one. each shirt cost me $4, and the pillowcases were $.50 each (you can make several shirts with one pillowcase). it takes me an average of 2 hours per shirt.

if you decide to try this project, please remember to hand wash and air dry. this is a practice you really should adopt for any ruffly embellished tee. it's a pain, but the price you have to pay to live lavishly in ruffles. a fair price to pay, if you ask me.
