First Shirt 2016

I have really got the sewing bug now!! As I am running out of storage space for steampunk clothing, I need to just do ‘normal’ sewing! My son loves wearing shirts, so I started with him! I am now amazed at how a basic school shirt can be quite so cheap. They have french seams!! This pattern doesn’t ask for french seams, but all my shirts have them!!

I have struggled with getting the collars perfect on some of my shirts. I think the first for my husband needed unpicking a couple of times to get the collar to fit the collar stand quite right, but I am getting better now. As I am just catching up on what I have made at the moment I don’t have many photos ‘in progress’, but I will be making more shirts, so will post more then!
