T Shirt Pattern
Happy Easter everyone. I am looking for a pattern to sew summer tops. I normally wear an extra large. I would like to know of a pattern that looks great when sewn and easy to alternate. Have lots of double knits ready to be sewn. Thanks, Loren

I'm also looking for a pattern like this. Hope someone suggests one that each of us likes! Happy Easter to you also!

I like the Perfect T Shirt by Pamela Leggett, and there is plenty of information on the website to assist with making a nice t shirt. http://www.pamelaspatterns.com

I haven't made it yet, but there is a free pattern here that fits S-XL

see the crease above the bust, really needs a dart. that's what started with knits. darts have disappeared in most clothes like blouses, dresses etc. shame.

Yes I do. I also need darts in the back because of my sloped shoulders.

I just might have to take some of the fitting patterns classes. I like making my own clothes, but haven't made any in years; due to fitting problems. I have narrow sloping shoulders & large bust. I'm a petite plus size woman, so patterns are sized weirdly...they think we have elephant necks and ape arms. :eek:

Me too, one of the reasons I wanted to learn to sew is to make clothes that fit me. I have hunched shoulder, sway back, small waist but big butt and legs. lol

If you have a ready made shirt/top that you like the style/fit, copy it! Turn the shirt inside out. Take some butcher or tissue paper and make a pattern from the ready-to-wear top. Add you seam allowances to the finished size and you are on your way. If I could find the cotton pique, I have a style top I'm ready to make about 100 of!
