Follow my blog with Bloglovin</a>This week has been exhausting. I drove 18 hours round trip one direction and then 14 hours round trip hours in another direction - some vacation. I needed a pick-me-up so I ignored the huge fabric stash I have on hand and took a trip to Hobby Lobby for cotton jersey and then pulled out my Frankie Baseball T-Shirt pattern.
I don't feel too bad about buying more fabric because I used it right away. I now have a new justification for buying more fabric 😀.
All I can say is this t-shirt is sooooooo comfortable, sooooooo easy to sew, and so cool for our ridiculously hot weather right now. I need one for every day of the month and jeans so I can be in heaven on earth.
I won't go into my normal detail since I already did it in
this blog post. I did make a couple of changes.
- I originally shortened the sleeve 3" but reduced it to 2" after making the first one. I decided the bodice length was fine (originally I thought I would also change it to 2" instead of 3"). I still didn't do the sway back adjustment (still being lazy).
- I tried a "3 step zig zag stitch" (I am sure this is not the right name) around the collar of the blue t-shirt (stitch for stretch fabrics) and decided I didn't like it so I went back to the regular zig zag stitch on the other 2 t-shirts.
More photos of all 3 t-shirts.
