Funky, fresh & quickly sewn: your new favorite handkerchief-hem shirt! Do you know the feeling? A full closet and simply NOTHING to wear? Maybe you're just missing a true favorite piece. So why not sew yourself a quick handkerchief-hem shirt? It always fits and looks great. And so that YULE can accompany you all year round, there are also sleeve markings in 3 lengths. All you need is a great favorite fabric, your sewing machine or overlocker, and off you go! :)
The pattern for this gorgeous handkerchief-hem shirt comes in 3 lengths. This way, you can whip up shirts, tunics, or dresses in no time. Perfect with jeans, leggings, or skirts. You hem it before sewing it together, which is really fast.
The pattern also includes adjustment lines, where you can modify the pattern to suit your body shape and size. If, for example, you wear different sizes for your bust and hips, you can mark the pattern lines for each size and connect them along the sections in between using a tailor's ruler. I recommend sewing a test garment out of inexpensive fabric first to check if any adjustments are necessary.
Note on the hem: In these instructions, I hem the shirt before sewing it together. This is quick and creates beautiful, overlapping seams at the points, resulting in a great effect. However, if you prefer to hem the shirt the classic way after closing the side seams, that is also possible.
