| Pam Z | 6/24/06 | Beautiful work matching center fronts and along pocket edge, making it look so much better than RTW! |

| Ronda65 | 6/24/06 | 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! |

| Sew4Fun | 6/24/06 | I'm generally not a big fan of Hawaiian-type shirts but I like your version. I hope your FIL liked it. |

| Vonnevo | 6/24/06 | Fabulous Debbie and another excellent review with clear and concise methods. Maybe that job at Simplicity has your name on it :)) |

| Tov | 6/24/06 | Great shirt, Debbie. I really appreciate the hint about the sizing. Am planning a shirt for DS and he's away for the summer. |

| BeckyC | 6/24/06 | 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! |

| Sherril Miller | 6/24/06 | 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. |

| Michelle T | 6/24/06 | 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. |

| Mary Stiefer | 6/24/06 | What a great summer/Hawaiian shirt. Thanks for this review. It appears it is a popular one and I certainly can understand why. |

| notimetowork | 6/24/06 | What a great review! Is this pattern easy to sew? |

| hongkongshopper | 6/24/06 | Such a cute shirt! As Kath and Kim would say together......"Noice, different, unusual..." |

| bunz | 6/24/06 | Great shirt, Debbie. I'm awed at your pattern matching! |

| brrmm | 6/24/06 | 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 |

| Debbie Cook | 6/25/06 | 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. :-) |
