Pattern Description:
Men's T-shirt with short or long sleeves and round or V neck Pattern Sizing:
S - XL Did it look like the photo/drawing on the pattern envelope once you were done sewing with it?
Yes Were the instructions easy to follow?
They looked very clear (Kwik Sew always is). I read through them before sewing but did refer to them when making the T-shirt. What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?
Simple T-shirt (and I am too lazy to trace off a design from a current T-shirt).
Dislike - the neckband is too wide. Fabric Used:
Cotton jersey
Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:
made the neckband narrower, also had to make it shorter as my fabric was a little more stretchy.
Use Threads tips which I mentioned in my blog to create neat hems on sleeves and hem using twim needles and a walking foot on my sewing machine. Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?
Am waiting for my husband to try it on, will then check fit and whip up some more! Conclusion:
Once pattern traced off and cut out- This can be whipped up very fast.. will reserve judgement until it has been worn.. but looks like being a handy staple to me! (once neckband width is adjusted!!)
Michele Lommasson said... Very nice. What a gratifying project, simple, but looks like ready to wear. I hope your husband likes it. You have inspired me to sew Ts for my husband. If I can find the right fabric, I know the fit he likes. What could be easier!
