    I kind of got a little lost in the directions, but I wasn't reading too hard so I'd probably get it if I read through again. I do however, love the way the end product looks!

    This looks great! I just got a new sewing machine so I might have to try this. Any suggestions for cheap t-shirts?
     

    Target has  tshirts on sale for $6 & $8.

    I totally loved this! I like the idea of being able to make your own discrete nursing tops. I am still pretty new to sewing but I think this is a project that I could handle. Thank you for sharing it with us.

    Love the idea!

    I have a question - I hope I can explain this well. Does the top of the belly panel (the one that covers the front, belly, that goes up underneath the part that covers your boob) stay up well when you're wearing it around? I always sort of assumed you'd need it to go all the way up to the collar in the middle of the shirt to be sewn there so it wouldn't get pulled down accidentally. I'd love to know if it stays up well, and if you think that a specific fabric would work best.

    If you're into trying to make others like it, check out Motherwear: https://www.motherwear.com/cat.cfm/cid/12
    Their stuff isn't as expensive, but they have a lot of different styles of nursing tops that I think would be pretty simple to re-create out of different styles of t-shirts like you did.

    I love this idea! May have to borrow my mom's sewing machine and give it the old fashioned college try.
