Sittin’ on the Dock of the Bayswater Book Co.

It’s hard to look ahead to T-shirt weather when there’s still more than a foot of snow on the ground, but it didn’t seem to bother the folks in New Hampshire who stopped by Bayswater Book Co. on Saturday for the Generation T Tee Party!

Some nice shout-outs by the local papers made for a cozy crowd, and a handful of scissors made the T-shirt sleeves fly!

Bridie was my fabulous model for the halter top demo. Then she and her mom, Katie, who brought T-shirts from home to transform, made the Mane-iac scarf (project #91 in Generation T: Beyond Fashion) and the Outer Lace tank top (project #16 in Generation T).

Bridie peaced out, turning her discarded T-shirt sleeves into a pair of laced up Gimme Some Glovin’ glovelets (project #103 in Generation T: Beyond Fashion). Then Katie refashioned a Back in Action tee (project #101 from Generation T: Beyond Fashion) to wear to teach yoga classes next week.

Ella fashioned a Mane-iac scarf, too, and then made a no-sew knotted pillow (Pillow Talk, project #30 from Generation T: Beyond Fashion) out of a T-shirt she had outgrown (definitely keeping with the peace theme, too!).

And several Tee Party-goers went home with their own signed copy of Generation T and Generation T: Beyond Fashion!

Then it was back to Holderness School for the second week (and the second eco-fashion show) of Artward Bound.
