I finished this shirt earlier this week. This is one of those things that I liked the minute I saw it, then I kept putting off making it. I think I was intimidated by the tracing that I would have to do. But, in all honesty, the tracing wasn't bad at all. And I am so happy I made this shirt. I used a linen blend shirting fabric. I made this in a size "W". I like the details of the shirt (the darts in front and back so it gives a more accented waistline, button details, etc). And I love the length of the shirt. It is so comfortable and not at all difficult to put together. I may want to make this again in a patterned material.
Now, I need to think about what I want to sew for Spring (even though we may have snow showers tonight).
Happy sewing!
Love the colour of your linen - I think your should definitely make more of this shirt as the style suits you!
