New Shirt

As the title suggests, I made another new shirt last week. This one was a breeze. Except for one small problem. I put the interfacing for the under collar, on the outside of the shirt, instead of on the inside. I noticed this, after finishing sewing on the buttons. So, rather than rip the whole thing apart again, I just cut the interfacing off. I don't think it's going to make a huge difference. The collar will just be a little droopy, that's all. I was amazed at how easy this fabric was to work with. It's very lightweight. It reminded me of kleenex when I was cutting it out. But, very easy. I love the colors in it too. It's particularly hard to photograph though, especially against a white background. So, I'm posting a swatch of the fabric up close, hopefully, you'll get the full effect.



This shirt also took me exactly 3 hours to complete. That's cutting, and sewing time combined. I should be able to crank out a few more, to add to my fall wardrobe at this rate.

Back to work tomorrow for me. Also a busy week this week. I had an interview for a coaching job tonight, then tomorrow is work, then registration for skating, thursday, work, then registration again, work friday, then off saturday, but registration at night again. Hopefully something good will come from all these registration dates. Maybe I'll be swamped with skaters this fall, and won't have time to make shirts!
