Recycling ideas: Fashion for women

picture from an anthropologie review blog.
i think i literally gasped when i saw this top online.  i
instantly fell in love and knew i had to have it!
i bought 2 white shirts, one in xs which is my size and one in
large.  i got the large shirt in round neck for more
fabric while i got the xs in a scoopneck.
you'll need:

2 shirts
scissors
matching thread
pins

estimated time: 1-2 hrs.
project cost: very reasonable(mine was $8 for both shirts)
skill level: advanced beginner to intermediate

1. take the large shirt and cut it into two pieces, a front and the
back piece.

2. cut the arms and the neckline off so it's closest to a rectangle shape.

3. take one of the piece and begin making the pleates.

4. (instruction written above)
