I fell in love with this fabric, and thought of making a pair of boxer shorts for my husband. He had other ideas and decided he would prefer a shirt! So I pulled out Jakob, modified slightly for size and shape and voila! It has been a long time since I have made a shirt, and I will admit to have struggled with the buttonholes (the automatic function on my sewing machine is playing up). But all in all, I am pretty happy with how it turned out.
