Do you remember the camping themed shirt<\/a> I blogged about a couple of years ago? No? Well I’m not surprised, as it’s been so long, I hadn’t realised I’d not actually posted the finished shirt!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It’s always a nerve-wracking process sewing the buttonholes when you’re pleased with the progress you’ve made. One tiny little mistake, or something nudging the automatic buttonhole lever, could mess up the buttonhole and prove really challenging to fix! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thankfully the buttonholes all went smoothly, and my Camp-a-long Critters button-up shirt is finished!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I do like the shape the princess seams give to the shirt, although either some pressing or topstitching might make those seams sit a little better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Ok, you can see where I didn’t have enough fabric to even pattern match the horizontal stripes, but I don’t see the back of my own shirt when I’m wearing it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One sleeve head has come out more ‘puffy’ than the other, which I think is a clear sign that I really need to get my head around the whole concept of “easing” fabric. I either end up with accidental puffy sleeves, or lots of pleats and tucks in the sleeve fabric where the easing hadn’t gone to plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Maybe that’s a goal for next year?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n
