I found a handheld sewing machine thing in Aldi a while ago for a tenner. I don’t know if something like that would do a good job of taking up a t-shirt, but maybe?

I actually have one of those (a JML thing I got for Christmas as a stocking filler, but I imagine the one in Aldi is made at the same Taiwanese plant). I might have a crack at doing one on a shirt I dont care that much about and see how it turns out. No harm, no foul I suppose.
