Burda Style For people who sew
Description
After over two years together I finally made something for my man. He wanted a summershirt with a cowboyfeeling. Had to do quite a few alterations to the pattern but in the end it turned out pretty good.
Material Notes

What alterations did you have to do? I want to make this, and don’t want any big surprises. It looks like the collar might stand up a little high or something (not on this version in particular, but in a few others that I’ve been looking at). My guy is pretty skinny, so I imagine I’ll have to take in the sides.
Any advice you can give before I give this one a go?

Well done! I like how you used the checks in different directions.

Looks very professionally made! Turned out great I think! I want to do something for my boyfriend, too, but I’m a little bit afraid, if he’ll like it ;)
