Ronda Rae said... Right on time! I was planning to buy a KS shirt for hubby today. He was a 4th of July shirt to wear! LOL This is the one! 6/24/06 6:05 AM
CarolynGM said... Looks great on your model. Very impressive job of matching the print, especially on the pocket. I hope your FIL loves it. 6/24/06 6:08 AM
Sew4Fun said... I'm generally not a big fan of Hawaiian-type shirts but I like your version. I hope your FIL liked it. 6/24/06 6:13 AM
Vonnevo said... Fabulous Debbie and another excellent review with clear and concise methods. Maybe that job at Simplicity has your name on it :)) 6/24/06 6:31 AM
dbsewer said... I love making these crazy Hawaiian shirts for DH. Yours looks terrific. 6/24/06 9:21 AM
BjP said... Wonderful shirt, Debbie! Love that fun fabric and your print matching is to die for. I also like your tag! Another great review with very helpful pictures. Great job! 6/24/06 9:32 AM
Tov said... Great shirt, Debbie. I really appreciate the hint about the sizing. Am planning a shirt for DS and he's away for the summer. 6/24/06 9:35 AM
BeckyC said... Great shirt! You did a fabulous job matching the print -- you're right the pocket is really hard to see, because the match is so good! I'm sure your FIL loves it! 6/24/06 10:06 AM
frame said... Handsome shirt. Great pocket matching! Thanks for the review. 6/24/06 11:05 AM
PVA said... Love the fabric, love the shirt! Thanks for another great review, Debbie. All of your details look so neat & professional -- as always, I appreciate the many up-close photos. 6/24/06 11:16 AM
Sherril Miller said... Great fabric. You're such a great DIL. I wish DH would wear a shirt like this. It's hard to get him to wear anything except crew t-shirts. 6/24/06 11:40 AM
Michelle T said... Great shirt. I have this pattern in stash, and dh loves hawaiian shirts. I just have to find the right fabirc. I can also understand the button sorting. I was given a small bag from a great aunt in NZ. Most the buttons are antique shell, amber, bone and other interesting things you don't find today. 6/24/06 11:45 AM
AliceB said... Great shirt, great pattern matching and great not so cheezy tag. I love it! 6/24/06 12:18 PM
Mary Stiefer said... What a great summer/Hawaiian shirt. Thanks for this review. It appears it is a popular one and I certainly can understand why. 6/24/06 12:22 PM
notimetowork said... What a great review! Is this pattern easy to sew? 6/24/06 4:10 PM
hongkongshopper said... Such a cute shirt! As Kath and Kim would say together......"Noice, different, unusual..." 6/24/06 5:36 PM
bunz said... Great shirt, Debbie. I'm awed at your pattern matching! 6/24/06 8:12 PM
brrmm said... Terrific "retro hawaiian" look, love it. Good job. Buttons are addictive - they should come with a warning. And I agree that the fabric is free as you put it.lol 6/24/06 9:44 PM
Debbie Cook said... Thanks everyone for all the nice comments. I so appreciate (and LOVE) it!
notimetowork Yes, it's a pretty easy shirt to sew even if you've not done anything similar because the KS instructions are quite thorough and well-illustrated. Plus, it's usually easier to fit men than women. :-) 6/25/06 0:25 AM
