Denim! What a great idea! He looks so happy to be enveloped in the clothes you make for him.

looks great scheri! i agree, i loved pam's class; i've already made 2 shirts for myself - which I haven't photographed yet. I'm so bad about that :( and I am about to start work on a shantung version (not necessarily "classic" in style, but with pam's tricks, i know it will work out fine.) and oh! the yoke trick - where has that been all my life? Your projects are wonderful, keep the photos coming. What a lucky man Brian is!

Brian sure is a lucky guy to have you making him another shirt... I have a feeling he's going to get even more.... and he's probably already put in an order LOL. Great job and the details look perfect! Well done :)

Sorry no I use patterns made by the big four and adjust to fit my size. I have started some online drafting courses on www.esewingworkshop.com. Check out their website. Good luck!
