Did you know? Multisize patterns are gauged for the largest of the size range. If you fall in the smaller end of the size range, you may need to take in the side seams.

Can I use #103, The T-Shirt Makeover for other garment reconstruction?
Absolutely!! This is one of my favorite things to do! I use this pattern to "makeover" polo style shirts, sweatshirts, and even sweaters (you'll want a serger for the sweaters!). If the garment I am working with is bulky, I always add some "just in case" seam allowance at the side and sleeve seams - you can always take it in if you don't need it!
