Not cute, but:

The way to make a toga, or a t-tunic, or a t-shirt, is:

Fold the bedsheet in half, lengthwise.

Lay it on the floor.

Lie on it, with your neck at the fold, your body right in the middle.

Draw around your body, leaving a generous margin--at least eight inches, more if you're portly.

Sew along that line. Then cut out a neck-hole where your neck was when you were lying, and trim the thing to the desired length. Seam off the neckline and the bottom hem.

Then turn the thing inside-out and presto, a t-tunic/toga/whatever.

Another easier way is just to cut the neck-hole and then gather the bedsheet at the waist and tie it with a belt (rope, strip of fabric).
