I bought this fabric last year. It has the name “Christian Lacroix” in the print. I don’t know if it’s real or fake and what collection it was made for or ‘inspired’ on…
I thought it would work well for a simple summer shirt. So, I made this one. I drafted the pattern myself, as usual.

Be it Hawaii or designer….it looks great! What I find most satisfying about sewing my own clothes is that no matter the fabric, if you finish your projects well they look as good as the “real” thing… Congrats.
