Pattern Description: Relaxed fit button front shirt in two lengths features yoke, collar, and buttoned cuffs. Views A and C have side seam pockets.

Pattern Sizing:4-12 (I used 10).

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?Yes, very easy.

What did you particularly like or dislike about the pattern?I love the button cuffs, I might change the hemline to make it more curved in future.

Fabric Used:Poplin from my stash.

Pattern alterations or any design changes you made:I had to add 1 1/2” to the sleeves because I have super long arms, I added the length to the cuffs rather than the sleeve piece.

Would you sew it again? Would you recommend it to others?Definitely, it’s nice to have a pattern for such a simple garment but could be used with so many different types of fabric.

Conclusion: A great sew with only minor adjustments.

Love this. The perfect casual shirt, with a nice group of variations. Yours looks perfect on you. I must try this one.
