Default My first shirt

: Cool:Hello everyone!
How are you? I hope of really feel very good!
Here in my life, have several things happened, as the beginning of a new project with my husband. This stole me my mind and my time in the last few months! I hope that idea was soon route and so I can return to my times and usual customs.
And the other thing that stole my hours of patchwork, is the fact that I started taking sewing classes with a teacher once a week!
And now I can tell you that I finished my first shirt! It is a classic shirt I did that a few details so that it is not so simple and common. At the neck and cuffs, I placed them black binding strips. For the top-left side, I did a small pocket formed with a simile Seminole to combine. And instead of buttons, I used a few Pearly snaps.
And now that I look it at completed, after many unstitched rather than sewn, I can assure you that the result I really liked!
I share some photos, hope you like and thank you very much for looking and sharing my work!
I hope you all have a beautiful weekend!
A big hug!

I'm a garment sewer too - you did a lovely job of placing the binding strips and the seminole on the pockets. The size of your seminole strips is just perfect for the pocket.

You are as good making blouses as your are making quilt blocks. I think you could make anything you want to make.
Beautiful blouse.
