Make it yours. This inspirational guide with DIY attitude has everything you need to know about the world’s great T-shirt: how to cut it, sew it, deconstruct it, reconstruct it, and best of all, transform it. • Features more than 100 projects (plus 200 variations) for customized tees, tank tops, tube tops, T-skirts—even handbags, a patchwork blanket, iPod cozies, leg warmers, and more. • Not a DIY expert? Not to worry. More than one third of the projects are no sew, meaning anyone who can wield a pair of scissors can put a personal stamp on her wardrobe. But the sewing basics are here too: backstitch and whipstitch, gather and ruche, appliqué and drawstrings. • And the mission statement for Generation T: Ask not what your T-shirt can do for you; ask what you can do for your T-shirt. And then Do-It-Yourself!

Summary: Love this book
Comment: A friend and I have after school programs and camps ages 6 to 13 and this book has made a huge impact on the whole group. The projects are fun and easy to do. The kids really wear the things they have made and feel good about recycling old t-shirts!! Wonderful book.

Summary: useful, but a lot of stuff i already knew
Comment: I bought this book hoping to get some new ideas on sewing. It did give me a few new ideas; however, a lot of the stuff i already knew how to make.
For a beginning sewer it is a useful book of craftiness. But, if you already sew you brains out like i do, I would only buy it as a reference piece.

Summary: Too Young
Comment: I am sorry to say I was disappointed with the product. The whole book is geared for the younger girls and I was looking for something for the more mature.

Summary: Awesome T-Shirt Book
Comment: Always wonder what to do with those t-shirts that are too big or too small, or a little worn out! I recommend this to anyone looking for a creative way to recycle their t-shirts!

Summary: A great place to start!
Comment: If you don't care to sew but want to join the altered,recycled clothing craze, this is a great place to start. Most projects are easily achieveable by the inexperienced crafter and are attractive and wearable. The main downside to this book is that most of the clothing isn't very sophisticated or wearable for those over about 35. I found it a great resource for working with my teenaged daughter and niece. They both liked the designs and found the directions easy to understand and follow.
