Description

The pattern is called ‘Henry shirt’, one of the pattern from ‘Sewing for Boys’ book by Shelly Figueroa and Karen LePage.

It looks like a simple shirt in a glance, but a closer look reveals more details like the wide pockets, the sleeves and back yoke, and the all-in-one collar. Instead of using fabric with different pattern, I placed the corduroy in different direction to create a subtler texture. I love it!

    i want one too! i love how the design is not as simple as it looks and how you changed the direction of the corduroy for interest.
