Annette Wright said... I forgot to add that I took a full 1" tuck out of the upper chest (to make it shorter and the armhole smaller.) A terrific review, and I might still try the undarted version, just compare it to a pattern that fits well first. 9/8/10 7:28 AM
mssewcrazy said... Thanks for this review. I like that it turned into a tnt for you. I think I might like this pattern as I have the fit issues you mentioned. The experiment your group tried was such a good one and sounds like lots of fun. Thanks for sharing the results. 9/8/10 9:37 AM

I like the curved hem. It seems to break up the wide expanse at the hemline. I have had compliments that particularly mentioned the curved shape. I had to make a lot of alterations, but it is my TNT t-shirt. 9/8/10 10:07 AM
diane s said... I like your review summary of the class. I make the same alterations as JAS and have good luck with this pattern. The binding directions looked wierd to me, so I use my classic 'Stretch & Sew' french trim method 9/8/10 12:05 PM

2mulie said... Yep, looks good on you! I still need to get a good T pattern, time to browse the stash. You would look good with this elongated into a dress, and use one of your shirts as a jacket. 9/9/10 11:22 AM
PattyE said... Great T! This is my go-to t-shirt pattern. I've made 8 t's from this pattern too. Love it. 6/15/12 3:34 PM
Sherril Miller said... Sondra, your tops are lovely. I'm so glad you liked this pattern because everyone needs a great TNT t-shirt pattern. Those fabrics you picked are so pretty and I only wish your gorgeousness was modeling all of them for us. 6/15/12 10:30 PM
Terri A said... Wooow this is great! I must buy this pattern as I am always collecting the t-shirt patterns and this one looks good for various figures. Thanks! 6/16/12 1:22 AM
RLL said... Well, I have had the pattern for some time now and never used it. Silly me! Your tops are so attractive. 6/16/12 6:46 AM
Riesie said... Great review. I agree that the pattern runs large, especially through the upper chest. This is my TNT pattern also so I'm glad you like it. Your shirts look fabulous on you! 6/16/12 12:00 PM
