    It has been awhile, but I hope you find this worth the wait! If you’ve never made a button up shirt before, you’ll be ready to tackle some of the trickier elements of sewing a shirt like sleeve plackets and the burrito method and grow your sewing skills. :)

      I make an effort to steer clear of fabrics that might confuse the audience, but I do have a preference for working with yarn-dyed fabrics when creating garments. Unfortunately, this means that occasionally there might be some confusion. I apologize for any inconvenience caused, but I find this fabric particularly appealing and couldn’t resist using it.
