This is a new, original pattern I’m planning to release this year. The students in this class will be the first people to get to make this shirt! They will be my beta testers as I finalize everything for sale on my website.

Sewing level: Intermediate

The Endless Summer Shirt is a casual top with elevated details to make you feel special everyday. Pleating at the base of the yoke floats the fabric away from the body + provides shaping even though the side seams are straight. Slight gathering at the top of the shoulders + a relaxed fit under the arm means no fabric is getting too close to the body in the sticky summer heat. The sleeves are all-in-one with the Bodice Panels so no setting in- when the side seams are done, so are you! The front hem splits just above the hip into a dramatic curve that’s finished with a facing that can match or contrast for an additional fun detail.
