That's so great!
I especially like the way the sides were done. Very groovy having the two different colours.
Maybe if I were doing a similar project, I would leave the ribbing around the neck of the t-shirts on to hold the shape, or use bias binding on the edges. But that's just for my style smile
I think it's great that you made a hood from the remaining T-shirt material and of course, green is perfect for a Zelda tee!
I haven't reconstructed any clothes before, but there is one top that I made that I want to cut down the middle to add more fabric and a zip (because I made it too small for me). I am such a noob biggrin

This is only the third shirt I've redone that I've actually been able to wear out of the house. LOL! But leaving the original neck would be a great idea. The reason why I had to surgery it though was definitely because the Zelda shirt's neck hole was way too small for my head, so that was part of the reason for cutting it off entirely.
It is nice and cool though- great for NC summers!

That's so awesome, I love the hood and how you put them together!
Most of my wardrobe is made of re constructed tee-shirts (skirts, wrist bands, re-made shirts, dresses) that I just didn't have the heart to throw out XD I usually cut off the neckbands on mine because I don't like the feeling of it around my neck, but you could take the neck of black tee and sew it back on therel; it's like bias tape, just take it off at the seams and fold it back over the raw edge and sew ^_^
You'd like a book called 'Generation T', it's got over 100 ways to reconstruct tees from making new shirts to purses to rag rugs (seriously, a rug).

Omg that is so cool, it made a relatively plain t-shirt into something really personalized and cool, I love it.

Cool, I never thought to do something like this. I know of people using t-shirts for pretty much everything but this is the first time I've seen two shirts combined so well that it looks natural
