Hey edubody! I’m so, so sorry that I have been pretty inactive this past month or so. Life here has been hectic in the grown-up world, bills to be paid, issues to deal with, college semester coming up. You know, the usual hectic adult schedule. x_x No time for play!

I’ve been too busy to chat, attend classes, or teach any. I hate it but it might be like this for a while. But I promise I haven’t forgotten about you guys! So, without further ado, here’s a picture of my eduFire shirt I won from a contest a while back. I wasn’t able to take it at a cool place… but I’ve brought the coolness to the shirt. ;)

(Koichi and folk, please don’t be mad at what appears to be me disfiguring the lovely, soft shirt, but the shirt was too big normally so I sliced and styled it to fit my womanly curves!)

I LOVE IT!! It suits an artsy person like me, and my fellow classmates will definitely get interested. Wink wink!

<3 Laura

Good on you!! Absolutely! Love it! Once you have curves you really don’t want to hide them. : ) How long did it take you?

I’m not really good at sewing, so I’m always on the lookout for stylish shirt cutting that doesn’t require needle and thread. This took me about 10-15 minutes max to do.

Here’s where I got this awesome style: http://www.instructables.com/id/The_T_Shirt_Hack_Or_How_to_revamp_an_old_t_shirt/

wow! I didn’t know you could do something like that to a shirt. That’s awesome!

Now I gotta look into doing that to my t-shirt…. :P

I love sewing, but this website sounds great!! I will take a look at it. Thanks : )

@K, have you got curves? ;P

Well Angela, since you like sewing, you have MANY shirt-altering styles open to you. Especially tank tops and “dresses.”

Koichi, go crazy! The different things you can do to guy or girl shirts are amazing. I just didn’t want to lose the logo. ;)

Awesome!!!

I would try to do that with my eduFire t-shirt. However, even if I could ever learn to do something like that, I don’t believe anyone here would really like to see me model it from either the front or the back!

Woah that is awesome!! You may have to be the eduFire clothes designer!

You look beautiful!!!!

I too, have many curves. My friends call it a fat stomach and behind, but I like word curves.

@Ron…..LOL

Wow! Love it! I’m super impressed! I wish I was creative like that. If I attempted to do that, I think I’d have holes in all the wrong places! I’m thinking that maybe you should create a class on how to jazzy up regular old t-shirts! Wink wink! Nudge Nudge!

By the way, I got my shirt, too….thanks, @K! I showed it off to Charisma, my Swahili student, and she loved it. Great logo and great feel to it all!

Ron, you know we’d LOVE to see you model your shirt!! Your default picture is wicked cool and representin’.

Thanks to everyone else for their lovely comments! Valerie, that isn’t a bad idea. Although the styles I’d be teaching are borrowed from tip sites, some don’t have videos so video instruction might help. I could visually demonstrate how to do this and other techniques. I’ll think about it. ;)

Wicked awesome Laura!

That is a great look! I have been thinking of altering my eduFire T-shirt once I got it. I assumed it is straight cut. Hahaha, but I will send mine to the tailor. :P

Laura!! That is amazing!!
Crazy skills. :)

Wow, that’s pretty sick. Well done!

Thanks guys!

I didn’t want to throw away the collar, so I made it into a (semi-)matching headband. :D

That’s hot!

eduFire admins….I think you have an excellent schwag-maker talent in Laura. HIRE HER IMMEDIATELY!

Ahh, I’m blushing. :3

Maybe Laura can have a clothing design class on eduFire.

Well, I can’t sew well or anything, so there’s only so much I could teach. :x
