Before: 1 REM t-shirt, size XL. This is what happens when you’re at the back of the merchandise queue.
After: 1 REM t-shirt, much smaller. This is what happens when you have a sister with a sewing machine. ;)
My sister bought this t-shirt when she went to see REM at the Milton Keynes Bowl, approximately one [...]

On Sunday I switched to part-time hours at Waterstones, so today was my first day of being able to get back in the shed and do some sewing!

The Problem:
What to do with a superfluous 4XL men’s t-shirt, which was left over from a regular customer who’s long since dieted out of it…
The Solution:
(Click for larger)
It doesn’t do that funny wrinkly thing above the bust when there are actual arms inside it. Honest.
