TUTORIAL: Shirt into Peasant Shirt

I've always wanted a cute peasant crop top but never seem to find one quite to my liking. The solution? Make one, of course!

This top has adjustable sleeves and an adjustable top so that it can be worn for dance or any piratey/ren faire costume event.

This top is created from a secondhand shirt. Depending upon the type of/size/fabric shirt you use your results may be different.
