Green Striped Shirt
Friday, November 11, 2005
Here's my new shirt draft all ready for cutting. This fabric is a cotton lycra and feels very silky. I bought it last March at the Vogue Fabrics booth at the Original Sewing & Quilt Expo. Coincidentally the fabric for the White Shirt and Scribbles came from the same place.
I'm expecting to like this just as much as those.
There appears to be two yards, and it is about 54 inches wide. There's plenty to cut a bias button band like this one at Nordstrom.com. ($125?? Please.)
The collar stand might want to be bias, too. And the cuffs. The loden fabric is draped over a chair waiting to be cut into some tapered pants. Looks like a fun weekend, doesn't it?
