I made view C, the green tunic on the front even though I bought it for a different view. I had this green plaid fabric with silver threads running through it just begging to be a button down. I enjoy my other one as a jacket-shirt so much, I wanted a second one.
This one has raglan sleeves, a cute tiny collar, and cuffs with a continuous lap. The fabric is from Fashion Fabrics Club and I had enough fabric to cut the plackets on the bias.
Isn't that little collar too cute!
The directions show a notch on the cuff pattern piece for matching up the shirt to the cuff but the cuff piece itself doesn't have this on it. It still fits well without this aid.
I used the continuous lap pattern piece and directions from the Simplicity 1013, I liked it so much.
I will definitely be sewing this pattern up again. I just love the fit on it and the ease of wear. I'd really like to sew up view B this summer. We'll see what happens. As they say, "So much fabric, so little time!
Hope you're enjoying your spring sewing. Happy sewing all!
