My fourth shirt (beehaw.org)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by [email protected] to c/[email protected]
 

I like unusual shirts and recently took it upon myself and my wife's sewing machine to start making my own shirts.

I ran into this rayon challis in the fabric store and decided I should have a tropical shirt of it. Converting my pattern to accommodate what I've heard about rayon challis involved turning the side seams and arm seams into french seams (after adding to the seam allowance on the pattern).

Surprisingly, it fits perfectly. It's not perfect by any means, but it's the first shirt of this fabric type that I've ever owned.
