Holes in my shirts

January 30, 2015 By: Amy Trager2 Comments

_MG_7308Many of my tee shirts have three little tiny holes right around my bellybutton area. 

It’s strange. 

So strange that I googled “Why do all my tee shirts have little holes?” 

Apparently I’m not the only one with this problem!  I found lots of other people interested in the question and offering possible solutions.  The one I’m going with is this:  when I stand at the sink to wash dishes, I lean on the counter and the metal button from my jeans rubs against my tee-shirt leaving holes. 

This dark blue tee was one of my favorites, but it had “THE HOLES” syndrome.  The thrifted skirt was a couple sizes too big, so I took that in along one of the side seams.  I cut about 6 inches off the bottom of the tee shirt and then sewed it onto the skirt.  It’s not a pretty sewing job , but I’m happy with how it turned out!

_MG_7312This new outfit looks like a tucked in shirt with a skirt, but it’s actually one dress.  It hangs on my body just right and doesn’t twist around on me during the day.  

That’s one way to deal with “The Holes” on my shirt!  Cut em right off!

Weighted Blanket for my sis

Last year, my sister mentioned that she wanted a weighted blanket, like the ones doctors recommend to people with autism, anxiety or insomnia.  She’s always loved blankets (me too) and those heavy corn/ rice packs that can be warmed up in the microwave (me too).   Knowing that her birthday was coming up, I looked at buying […]
