Dialogue: 0,0:01:17.99,0:01:19.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now the first step is to remove the sleeves.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:19.79,0:01:24.13,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, I turned the t-shirt inside out and I\Ngot a pair of small, sharp scissors.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:24.13,0:01:28.42,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Most store-made shirts will use overlocking\Nstitches, that look like this, to attach the

Dialogue: 0,0:01:29.42,0:01:33.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The quickest and easiest way to remove these\Nstitches is to find the side of the seam where

Dialogue: 0,0:01:36.17,0:01:38.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Notice these two lines of thread going across\Nthe loops?

Dialogue: 0,0:01:43.84,0:01:47.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Once I’d done that all the way around the\Nsleeve seam, I could basically just pull on
Dialogue: 0,0:01:47.83,0:01:51.72,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the threads on the other side of the seam,\Nand ALL of the threads came loose.
Dialogue: 0,0:01:51.72,0:01:55.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,By using this method it only took a couple\Nof minutes to remove the sleeves!
Dialogue: 0,0:01:58.45,0:02:02.58,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now I’m going to set the body of the shirt\Naside for the moment, and I’m going to use
Dialogue: 0,0:02:02.58,0:02:05.40,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,just one of the old sleeves to make a pattern\Nfor some new sleeves!
Dialogue: 0,0:02:05.40,0:02:09.81,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, the original sleeves on this t-shirt\Nwere pretty small and tight, however I wanted
Dialogue: 0,0:02:09.81,0:02:14.23,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to make the new contrasting sleeves both wide\Nand longer.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:14.23,0:02:18.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I’m not only going to trace and copy\Nthe old sleeve, I’m also going to modify
Dialogue: 0,0:02:18.26,0:02:19.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it to make it bigger as well.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:19.59,0:02:23.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So first I cut open the original sleeve to\Nmake it flat, and then I traced around the
Dialogue: 0,0:02:23.43,0:02:26.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,top of this original sleeve, onto some blank\Nbutcher’s paper.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:29.73,0:02:33.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I then made the sleeve a little bit longer\Nby extending the pattern straight down from
Dialogue: 0,0:02:33.37,0:02:39.10,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the curved edge, like this.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:39.10,0:02:40.92,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And I ended up with this sleeve pattern.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:40.92,0:02:47.14,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, I also wanted to make the sleeve WIDER,\Nso I cut up the pattern vertically in 3 places
Dialogue: 0,0:02:47.18,0:02:52.24,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,like this, and then I separated the 4 resulting\Nsections.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:52.24,0:02:56.33,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The top of the sleeve is still the same length\Nas the original, but the rest of the sleeve
Dialogue: 0,0:02:56.33,0:02:57.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,is now WIDER.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:57.79,0:03:03.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I traced around this slashed and spread-out\Npattern, onto more pattern paper, also extending
Dialogue: 0,0:03:03.16,0:03:08.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the sleeves to make them a little bit longer\Nagain, adding an even 7 inches on both sides,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:08.65,0:03:13.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,and then I added a slightly curved bottom\Nedge to join up the ends, and now I’ve got
Dialogue: 0,0:03:13.37,0:03:15.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,my new sleeve pattern, which I cut out.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:15.83,0:03:18.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Notice how much bigger it is in size to the\Noriginal sleeve?
Dialogue: 0,0:03:18.20,0:03:21.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,However, the top edge is still the same length,\Nwhich is important because the new sleeves
Dialogue: 0,0:03:21.96,0:03:24.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,with still fit on the original t-shirt.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:24.27,0:03:27.57,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,With the sleeve pattern done, I grabbed my\Nholographic material.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:27.57,0:03:31.29,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,To cut out two mirrored sleeves at once, I\Nfolded the fabric over in half like this,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:31.29,0:03:35.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,right sides together and then I laid the pattern\Ndown on top of the wrong side of the fabric,
Dialogue: 0,0:03:35.12,0:03:39.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,put some heavy items on top of the pattern\Nto hold it in place, and I cut around the
Dialogue: 0,0:03:39.28,0:03:43.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,pattern with my rotary cutter, cutting through\Nboth layers of fabric at the same time.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:43.22,0:03:46.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,This gave me two, mirrored sleeves, that look\Nlike this.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:46.80,0:03:50.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,For each sleeve, I folded it in half, right-sides\Ntogether like this and then I sewed down the
Dialogue: 0,0:03:50.93,0:03:51.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,straight edge.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:51.93,0:03:56.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I used an overlocker (also known as a serger)\Nfor this step, but a zig zag stitch will also
Dialogue: 0,0:03:56.62,0:03:57.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,work just fine.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:57.74,0:04:01.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Next, I finished off the bottom edges of the\Nsleeves by first overlocking right around
Dialogue: 0,0:04:01.84,0:04:05.73,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the bottom edges – and again, this is a\Ntotally optional step – and then with the
Dialogue: 0,0:04:05.73,0:04:09.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,sleeve still inside out I folded the bottom\Nedge up about 5/8ths of an inch (which is
Dialogue: 0,0:04:09.82,0:04:11.34,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,about 1.5 cm).
Dialogue: 0,0:04:11.34,0:04:15.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I stuck some pins in and I sewed all the way\Naround the edge using a zig-zag stitch to
Dialogue: 0,0:04:15.97,0:04:18.27,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,make a hem at the bottom of the sleeves.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:18.27,0:04:22.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Because I’m using stretchy fabric, I am\Nalso using a walking foot on my sewing machine,
Dialogue: 0,0:04:22.49,0:04:25.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so that the hem doesn’t become all weird\Nand ruffled.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:25.06,0:04:28.97,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I am also using clear thread so the stitch\Nwon’t be visible from the outside.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:28.97,0:04:32.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,After I repeated that process on both sleeves,\Nit was now time to attach them to the body
Dialogue: 0,0:04:32.67,0:04:33.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of the original t-shirt!
Dialogue: 0,0:04:33.67,0:04:37.20,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,To do this, first I turned the body of the\Nt-shirt inside out.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:37.20,0:04:41.65,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then I pushed one of the sleeves inside the\Narmhole, hem-first, so that the curvy, raw

Dialogue: 0,0:04:52.96,0:04:56.25,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then using lots of pins, I pinned the two\Npieces together really well.
Dialogue: 0,0:04:56.25,0:05:01.59,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The last step was to sew the sleeve on, using\Na zig zag stitch, all the way around the armhole.

Dialogue: 0,0:05:09.54,0:05:13.60,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,After sewing the two together, I did finish\Noff the seam by going over it again using
Dialogue: 0,0:05:13.60,0:05:17.49,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,my serger, but again, this step is totally\Noptional - it just gives you a more professional
