It’s such a treat to rediscover a vintage item I forgot I had in my stash – especially when it turns out to be the perfect ingredient for a project I have in mind!
Take a peek at how simple it is to transform a vintage nightgown into an adorable top, cover up a stubborn stain + stencil your jeans too!
Pop the nightie on, mark it to your desired shirt length and chop on through.

Pin to the chopped edge of the top of the nightie.
Stitch together and enjoy your adorable new to you top!

Here’s how I deal with it:
