To keep or not to keep, that is the question

I've been trying to weed out my closet recently. Actually, to be honest, I'm a bit of a clothes horse. (To which I'm referring to my obsession with collecting clothing which at times might border on excessive. None of it is excessively expensive, I just can't justify that, but the quantity could be interpreted as excessive to be sure. And I can't seem to throw things away. And I'm not proud of it. Which is why I want to weed out the closet. Especially if I haven't worn items in over a year.) Anyway, I came across an olive green t-shirt that I've worn frequently over the years. It is soft, comfortable, and well worn. I noticed as I was inspecting it to decide whether or not to add it to "the pile" that it had a big stain on the front. Drat! Guess it goes...

But wait! I decided to keep it and try a t-shirt refashion I've been seeing so much of this past year. I cut out tulle circles, several of varying sizes, and pinned groups of them together assymetrically close to the neck and up towards the right shoulder. Then I cut strips of satin and sewed a straight stitch down each strip gathering the strips and pinning them to the shirt over the tulle clusters. It looked something like this:

I sewed the cream colored satin posies in place over the tulle circle clusters. It didn't take very long. It still needed something so I stitched some beads in the center of each posie. Pretty cute! Drat! Guess it stays...

I'll have to find something else in the closet to add to "the pile".
