A New Years Mess

I need help!!!!! I was making my boyfriend and shirt and cut it up the back on the fold line. I do not want to buy more fabric. What else can I do?

You have a couple of options.  I don’t know what type fabric you are using  so you will have to adjust.   You can sew fabric and make a seam in the back, but note you will be using a seam allowance on both sides that wasn’t there in orig pattern.  Make a 1/4 seam  (1/2 x 2 = 1/2″) used up.  You will have to reduce the seam allowance on both side seams to make up this usage.   If you have a serger, use this to make seam and it will avoid raveling. You could also use a strip of fabric and sew over the seam like an applique.
