I made this shirt by copying and making a pattern from another shirt i had that i liked. its made from a light weight breathable fabric perfect for the hot spring days. i tryed a new techneqe on the facing where i first sewed the interfacing and facing piece right sides together then fliped the pieces wrong sides together and pressed the fusable interfacing to give a nice clean edge to my facing without having to serge the edge and add bulk, it worked out very well!
