So from now on, I'm going to be posting a challenge every Monday that I would LOVE for you to take part in. I can't say exactly what kinds of things I'm going to do, because I'm more of a by-the-seat-of-my-pants kind of gal.
This week, for the very first one, I'm going to challenge all of you eco-friendly followers out there to make a t-shirt for yourself. (And yes, guys, please take part, I found you a great pattern too!)
I'm going to post a link to a free t-shirt pattern and tutorial*.

This challenge will require you to have:
Because it was SUCH a mission for me to find a men's t-shirt pattern and tutorial, I'm going to post it first.
For the ladies, this site promises that this will be the "simplest women's t-shirt ever". I looked it over. I really do think it will be pretty basic. At the bottom, you can find links to other variations of this as well, in case this is too easy for you!
If you decide to do this--which I hope you do--please leave a comment and a photo of your creation when you're done. I'll do the same when I'm done mine. (I've never made one of these, so there's a chance it could come out crazy!) I'd love to see what you've made!!

- Scissors capable of cutting fabric.
- Fabric.
- Straight sewing pins.

To get the pattern, you have to sign up for the newsletter*. Once you've confirmed your subscription, you get a code, and can pick one free pattern. I chose this one, so I could have a look at it. It looks like it is easy enough, but if you just want a basic t-shirt, here's a free pattern and tutorial for that, as well (also requires the same subscription).
