Oh, if only I could sew!

I cannot sew.  My Grammom attempted to teach me several times, but she always had to take over.  Lines are never straight, and most of the time they are not even on the fabric!  Don't even get me started on tangles and knots. 

So I have in my mind a certain shirt that I want to make and wear for the Avenged Sevenfold concert in Vegas.  Its needs to be a fun shirt, not like all the ones you can buy at the mall.  If I were to order one of these, it would have been atleast $50.  Or it would have to come from Hong Kong!  I originally asked my sister to help, but she has a lot to do and this shirt seems to be a huge undertaking.

Yet, undertaking it I am.  Without a sewing machine and with the previously mentioned lack of sewing skills, I will attempt to take 2 shirts and turn them into one fabulous "Vegas-worthy" shirt.  Oh, did I mention that it needs to show off my Avenged Sevenfold tattoo?  Oh, and did I also mention that this concert is on Saturday? 

Off I go to attempt this potentially disasterous crafting expedition.  Pictures to follow.
