I guess I need to look in the clothing more! I never thought about cutting up men's shirts but that's a good idea. I could even cut the buttons off and save them for something else. I got a beautiful deep purple blouse and a white denim jumper with purple flowers on it for DD--fit her perfectly and she wore it to church this morning. The only thing I had to do was to change the buttons on the shirt. Now I'm going to have to go back and look at the men's shirts with a new eye.
