The flocking cranes continue. I purchased enough of the crane cotton voile to make my darling daughter a shirt too.
I'm making her a dress, using Simplicity 8014. So I decided to use the same pattern for a shirt. This was a super easy pattern hack. I simply cut the dress pattern the desired length for a button down shirt. Simple.
My previous review of the dress really says it all as fair as the sewing process is concerned. My only other changes for her shirt were a small FBA and I did French seams for the sleeve and side seams. I used the short sleeve instead of the long one.
I came close to matching the cranes on the pocket to the ones on the shirt |
So this shirt was easier to make than the dress, which had a lot of steps to finish the sleeve and cuff.
That's it. Thanks for always stopping by!
Happy Sewing!
