Description

I made this man’s shirt from a remnant just 1.4m square! Quite a challenge. Because I wanted to make use of the stripes as a feature, this rather restricted the length, so best worn outside trousers! Oh, and it’s entirely HAND-sewn.

Material Notes

Cotton-and-something remnant

    You did a beautiful job on the (hand!!!) sewing and on your use of the directional stripes. It’s great fabric, and I can see why you were determined to make it work. Wonderful shirt!
