Upcycling: Western shirt to Bubble Shorts

Author: Psychodivamom / Labels: , , , ,

I came across this red and white western shirt and thought I should do something with it. Initially the idea was to make it a sleeveless blouse to wear with a skirt, shorts, whatever. But the fabric was so thin, I was to scared to try to remove the massive pockets from what would be my breasts.

So when I started cutting, I realized it was the perfect cut for shorts. I Cut the middle snaps off and put them aside, and then started sewing away. About 45 minutes later, Amelie had a new pair of bubble shorts which only required thread and elastic.





I attached the snaps to the sides to give it more of a shorts look then bloomer look.
