Today I FINALLY finished my Past Patterns 007 Men's Shirt, View A. I'm telling you, this shirt took as long as a making a dress, but I'm really pleased and definitely like it better than View B! I did parts of it by hand (more than normal), and parts by machine. With all the effort it took, I'm not sure I want my husband to actually wear it on trek! I can't wait to make the cravat, but I'm still trying to figure out exactly how to do that.
I'm not sure if I did the detachable collar correctly, but it seems to work.
I did both of my gussets correctly this time.
Hand stitching on the inside (did not line).
My next project is to recreate the man's shirt from The Workwoman's Guide!
That looks very nice! I've never tried that pattern before, but if it's as time intensive as you say maybe that's a good thing. :-)
ReplyDeleteWhere do I purchase the pattern? I want to make this for my husband. thank you. Elizabeth
ReplyDeleteI just got mine from the Past Patterns Web site, but several other places sell this pattern, too.
