I recently designed this Classic Summer Sport Shirt
for one of my favorite clients.
Made from the lightweight textured silk shirting pictured to the left, it features a pocket and sleeves accented with piping.
To give this 1950's inspired shirt a modern look, it also features a straight-edge collar stand and an angled "Spade Hem".
SEWING NOTES: Original design hand-drafted pattern, Fabric from my collection of shirting fabrics, Collar unit interfaced with PRO-SHEER ELEGANCE Fusible Interfacing from Fashion Sewing Supply.
Beautiful, as always! Love the "spade" hem. I get so inspired by you!
ReplyDeleteThat Spade Hem really makes this shirt a standout!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful shirt, Pam. You have such a great eye for details! I shamelessly copied your cigar pocket last year and it was a big hit.
ReplyDeleteThe contrasting details are terrific. I just posted on my blog a shirt I am making, and used your tutorial on attaching a collar band. It turned out perfect! Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThis is wonderful Pam. I really like that hemm.
ReplyDeleteOnce again - gorgeous. I've noticed that you often use the contrasting fabric as the yoke lining, and I love the way that looks.
