As a base I used the JJ pattern – I already have it fitted to my measurements and use it a basic shirt block. Very handy. I just left the sleeves out and added a long stripe for the pussy bow collar. I wanted to make it puffier but I ran out of fabric…
It is double faced – I sew the front and back together and turn it right side out through the neck opening.
