well I know that I have cut my own and they just roll up nicely-- as Carolena advises in the 20 Year dvd, you cut just next to the seam, not the actual seam, and they just curl right up and not-fray! Easy breezy beezy. I can't leave any of my cholis alone-- i love the split shoulder

If you're looking for a tutorial on how to make a t-shirt you've got lying around into a choli, i made a frankencholi tutorial here:

I've used a black stretch longsleeve from H&M and it's even been good enough to perform in! Plus, if you make franencholis for your practice out of old tees you haven't parted with yet, you're potentially saving waste from the landfills which is of course awesome.

Joy's description of cutting next to the sleeve seam to convert a choli to drop-shoulder is right on the money. It'll keep the shape of the top where you want it and allow the fabric to curl down onto itself. I'm sure it's easier to see it than read it though

I made myself a split-shoulder one using the FCBD choli pattern; I snipped a quarter-circle out of the top upper corner of the sleeve pattern-piece. Hemmed the edges with a little rolled hem. Looks awesome :D. I've never done a frankencholi or a stretch choli so I can't help there, though.
