Omg, that's so cute!!!

I love this! For me sewing with scraps or upcycling unloved garments is much easier than sewing with new fabric because if I fail it didn't cost any money and I learn so much every time. New fabric overwhelms me because I feel pressured to make something that is perfect. When I started sewing at the age of 13 I used scraps from my sister's sewing projects and old clothes and I just played with them. I recommend everyone to try that and to let their kids try that, too.

Wow Alisa, this is the best of all the scrap fabric videos you have done so far. Super creative. Tons of inspirations. Thank you so much.

You are definitely the scrap-master. 😊 Awesomely, inspiring.

I find creating from leftover fabric is so satisfying. I love all four of today's makes. You have given me an idea for a print panel I bought and never used so thanks for that too!

You are my friend. Love from New Zealand. Love your spark.😊

I liked all of the shirts but was especially impressed by the shirt with the 3 horizontal bands; superb! (And very flattering, also)! I am going to try that one, for sure!

Cute tops,great use of small bits of fabric.

Oh my gosh I love scrappy happy❤❤❤the last tee is my favorite 😍 you R amazing ❤

All are looking fun, but the one with the wave pattern is super cute..

Your eye 👁️ for color is amazing every time ❤❤❤

All the T-shirts are beatiful!

Keep the scrappy videos coming.

I love these ideas. I think your solution for the sleeve was perfect. Because it shows how you can make the smallest scraps work. Cotton Lycra is my favorite fabric. I always have loads of scraps. It is too pricey to let any of it go to waste. Thanks!

You're so right, Irene, about using even the smallest parts of the fabric and yesssssss.... good cotton lycra can be pricey, so no way I am letting any of that go :D

Great ideas and very simple to put together. Excellent video.

I saw the KZread plaque and thought great, she has 50,000 subscribers. Let me see how many she has now. 260,000! Congratulations! I like the black with black stripe t-shirt the best.

Clever & creative use of scraps.🎉

love the A-symmetrical look

What a clever use of scraps! Such great ideas and they looked great. Thank you for the inspiration…. I will be taking a look at my bag of stretchy scraps now.

Great ideas Alisa! I think it's time for me to use up all those scraps I've acquired over the past few years.

Love your videos. You are so full of positive ideas.

Absolutely love all of your color blocking ideas and results! You inspired me to sew many color blocked shirts myself and they usually end up being the most fun projects! :) The wave one as well as the striped last one are definitely on a mental bookmark - might make something similar in the future :)

I zoo love the way you create. It inspires me so much. To me it is no rules just have fun, and that is what makes me happy. I started my sewing with cutting apart a favorite longsleved t-shirt into small pieces and then like two more and putting them back together. I love that top. even if i made some misstakes.

The rose one is my favourite but all of them are bautiful! You are the queen of the T-shirts!❤🤩👏👏

Great garments. Love them all!!!!

LOVE your hacked t-shirts! In my humble opinion, you exceeded yourself with all three! In my mind, I'm seeing a t-shirt made in three shades of white. I'll know the colors when I get them. You inspire me & I sincerely appreciate what you do in your videos. THANK YOU, ALISA❤

I love your scrap busting videos (not that there was anything wrong with the pattern drafting ones!). A wee idea to build on top of the one with a large rectangle block in the middle: make it a patch and even have it fray/roll a bit on purpose. Could be a nice, grungy vibe :) That wave t-shirt is amazing! Many would probably go for dolmen sleeve to make their life easier, but not you :)

@ThoughtfulCreativity

Жыл бұрын

he he :) oh yea, the patch would work if you have enough for a full front pattern piece, but in this case it works since you can use up small fabric scraps to "build out" the front pattern piece around that rectangle. I do patches/applique on my daughter's t-shirts a lot (mostly to cover stains, lol). Ah, you read my mind, I would go for a dolman sleeve for the wave one, but I did not have enough width of the black knit because I cut it out from the existing t-shirt with logos, and the t-shirt was my actual size, so I could not cut out the dolman sleeve, aggrgrgr :D

I love this idea. At first I was thinking this isn't for me until I started watching how easy it is to play with the material. This has inspired me to try using scraps that I would otherwise have never thought about. My favorite 2 are the lemon shirt and the three different colors. Thank you for pushing me out side my comfort zone. I just love your enthusiasm.

This is a very nice scrap fabric combination project! The first one you made is kind of the same as the t-shirts I combined to make a shirt. i don't like the prints so I combined them by cutting a rectangle in the yellow shirt and I cut a black rectangle, sew it in the yellow shirt and added randomly placed yellow strips on top of the black rectangle. I hand-sewn it and I still wear it often for 4 years! Upcycling is really fun!

Fantastic creations. ❤

I love the swoop tee the best, I think continuing it under the arm is very clever. The blush shows up well on the triple scrap tee. I would like it better if the bottom was black, the white is too much contrast for me, it draws my eye rather than blends. However, in the white tee with the square the pops of white in the pattern are what makes it so successful. I am very impressed and inspired by them all.

Hi Alisa. Great t-shirts! A friend of mind will make panties using smaller pieces of t-shirt weight knit fabric. I thought that was an amazingly creative idea for knit scraps. Really enjoying your channel!

Very nice. Great ideas

These are so fun! Thanks for the inspiration.❤

Liss, I hope you get a chance to get back to sewing, I find that hand-sewing is very relaxing and does not require pulling out a sewing machine and other tools, so it can be an "on the go" hobby. In the meantime - thank you for watching :)

I’d have to say my favorites are the black spotted, pink and white and, the lemon shirt. Super cute!😊

I love it very beautifull

I've actually been thinking about just cutting out a ton of squares out of my scraps and then just patch working them together and maybe making a patch worked dress or something.

Bravo! It's very beautiful 😍

Those were awesome, favorite is asymmetrical curvy line; the right sleeve should have shown more of the stripe ,maybe about halfway up the sleeve arm, and the 3 different color patterns was also wonderful liked that very much. Asymmetrical patterns would be great, lot of potential for different contrasting patterns. Thank you very much. Enjoyed this video.rab.

Alisa!!!! You are so smart. Just where do these wonderful ideas come from? Question... do you wake up in the middle of the night with an idea for us? Love your videos.

Super nice

Totally worth the effort! Cute results!🎉🎉🎉

This is so lovely! I don't usually buy knits so I haven't got scraps. What I do have is a ton of tshirts from the thrift shop in all sorts of colours (fill a shopping bag for $1 😊) I'll use them and see what happens. Thanks so much for the inspiration!

I know what's easier put the pattern fabric on a t-shirt you already have😊. Or make a t-shirt then add the fabric on top. Easy as pie.

@ThoughtfulCreativity

Жыл бұрын

Yes, you can do that as well, and I do that with applique, usually with hearts, but the point of this is to use up fabric scraps, like in the case of yellow knit - I had enough for the panels, but not enough to cut full pattern pieces so arranging the panels around a rectangle works out better than what you suggested, when with talk about using up scraps.

Also what stitch did you use to sew the seams?

Gotta ask... Are you on a Lazy Susan? I do like the combo of fabrics. One of my favorite tees combines a galaxy print and a math print!
