9 Ways to Transform Old T-Shirts: The History
Way back in 2010 when AllFreeSewing was just learning how to walk, this compilation of free t-shirt tutorials was put together. Throughout its long life this eBook has become a classic on AllFreeSewing.
Why this Free eBook Knocks Everyone’s Socks (or T-Shirts) Off
Filled with projects on how to refashion t-shirts for home decor, accessories, and more this collection has it all. But what makes it great is its very essence. In a nutshell, you don’t need fancy fabric to participate in this eBook. Look at the title. These projects utilize those old college or high school tees you have stacked up in a bin in your closet. You may not want to toss them because they’re perfectly good, but you never wear them. Use these as fabric by applying them to these specialty tutorials.
What’s Different?
Again, the essence of this eBook was top notch. Why change a good thing? The little elves at AllFreeSewing worked to keep the content of this free eBook; so if you’re a frequent visitor to it, worry not it’s all still there. All we did was give it a little facelift. Brightened up with a fresh cover and spread into one column for easier reading, 9 Ways to Transform Old T-Shirts is just a little more happening and improved for the mid 10‘s.
We could go over everything you’ll find in this eBook right here, but honestly you 1) might already know and 2) you’ll get all of this information on the download page right here. Why waste anyone’s precious time when they could be re-imagining their old tees?

I never thought about how long I’ve had my Ts. Think the oldest I still have are the ones I purchased, on sale, in about 1990 at the store I worked then. I liked the colors and the style. Gained weight, so for a while I didn’t wear any of the things from that time. Now I can, like the older styles so wear them. Heard from someone who admired my “retro” things that his grandmother still wore clothing from her high school days in the 1950s.
Seems lot of us older folks like the “retro” styles.
The oldest I have is tucked away. It’s from the 70s and I got it when I was in the South CAroline ANG. Way too small now, but I keep it for sentiment.
