I’ve tried sewing my own clothes several times, but always had difficulties on sleeves and collar. So, whatever came out from my sewing room always ended up sleeveless and collarless. Then i decided to take sewing course, not only because I want to make clothes with sleeves and collars, but I want to learn seriously about pattern-making, so that hopefully, someday, I can be free from any ready to use patterns.
And this is my very first top, - with sleeves and collar! Yay!
On the first days of the class, I was taught about how to make collar pattern, then for this creation, i picked one that my teacher said the easiest, i don’t know what is this in english.
Even the easiest, it took me hours to finish it. Mostly on, what else? sleeves and collar! lol
