Origami shirts

These shirts were made from a 4 x 6 paper. Take the paper and fold in 1/2. Then fold in the two into each other. Fold the top back about 1/2 inch. Fold in the top to make the collar. Fold out the bottom which will make the sleeves. Fold up the bottom and tuck under the collar. It's not hard and much easier seeing the diagram. You can add buttons
