Tims Burda Shirt. |
When we were first 'going out' I made many shirts for Tim. In 'those days' my Mum would buy cheap cotton from Woolworths in 2 yards "dress lengths" in plain colours. I had a simple mans' shirt that had a few different collar variations that I would sew up on my $100 straight/zigzag machine. I remember Mum buying both of us (my sister deceased) a machine, but cannot remember for what occasion. I think it may have been her 21st. I was the sewer and think Mum felt sorry for me and gave me one also to take to college. I made so much on that machine.
This was not sewn on that machine and is a newer Burda 6/2011 pattern made in a light blue cotton.
looks a lovely cool shirt - sure it will get lots of wear ---- I too got a sewing machine for my 18th birthday - my daughter would have died if I gave her a machine for her 18th or 21st (not the in thing now days - sadly)
