Men's Shirt FRED | Paper Sewing Pattern

Sewing Pattern FRED: The Versatile Men's Shirt

With the FRED sewing pattern, you can sew a unique men's shirt out of jersey. This design offers you endless possibilities for styling, depending on your own taste and creativity. Whether simple in one fabric or colorful, combined from several fabrics – Shirt FRED will always be a real eye-catcher.

Creative Variety with Shirt FRED

The special thing about FRED is the freedom it offers you when combining fabrics:

• Sew the shirt out of one fabric for a simple look that remains exciting thanks to the striking center seam and the different lengths.
• Combine two fabrics to design the front and back differently.
• Use up to six different fabrics to give your shirt an individual touch.

Perfect for Using Up Fabric Scraps

FRED is ideal for making sensible use of your jersey scraps. Even small pieces of fabric can be integrated, making your shirt a truly unique item. A small remnant of nice jersey is often enough to design a quarter of the shirt.

Additional Highlights for Your Shirt

Shirt FRED offers room for creative experimentation:

• Embroidery for a personal touch
• Colorblocking from fabric scraps
• Iron-on transfers or vinyl designs for an individual look

What to Keep in Mind When Cutting

Before cutting, consider whether you want the long side of the shirt to be on the right or left side. Adjust your fabric pieces accordingly by choosing the correct front piece (FP) and back piece (BP).

Size and Fit: How FRED Sits Perfectly

FRED has a loose cut and offers a comfortable fit. To determine the right size, use our tables as a guide. You can also compare a well-fitting T-shirt with the measurements in the finished garment size chart. We recommend sewing a test garment beforehand to adjust the fit individually if necessary.
