Pattern Description: Every day raglan T-shirt, suitable for the gym or a casual Sunday worn with your jeans, a real must have piece.

Pattern Sizing: I made a sz20 - the pattern has zero ease so I sized up so it wouldn't fit too tight.

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 are brief but are ok

Fabric Used: Supplex for the main fabric and a Pique for the sleeves

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made: I lowered the neckline and lengthened the sleeves and took about 1cm out of the front shoulder seams.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others? Yes and Yes, I have already sewn it up again!

Conclusion: I wanted a simple t-shirt to wear for exercise and this fits the bill perfectly. Its long enough to not ride up and it manages to skim the figure without being too tight. I really liked all the shaping built into the side seams.
I have some more pics on my blog
