Depending on the length of the shirt, I often just gather some fabric and add it to the bottom-like a dropped waist. My dgd loves them!

And I just found this link: http://www.hgtv.com/hgtv/cr_kid_crafts/article/0,1789,HGTV_3256_1371470,00.html This sounds pretty easy, so even a newbie like me should be able to do it. I think I'll try it in the next couple of days, as I have quite a stash that I can choose from, and I bought a bunch of T-shirts at Michaels when they were on sale for $2.00 USD. If I'm brave, I might even make an applique out of the skirt fabric to put on the t-shirt. My friend had told me about doing the appliques, but I've never tried it. Theresa
