My fiance's cousin was married in the middle of July. Try as we might, we couldn't find a short-sleeved, button-down, casual shirt for our (at the time) 7-month-old son. No worries though, it was just the excuse I needed to sharpen my sewing skills & use my new machine.
I used Butterick pattern #6030 and some striped poplin. People were pretty surprised I'd actually made something this good. Not sure if I should take that as a compliment or not?
