THE EVERYDAY SHIRT • Pattern

By The Avid Seamstress, The Everyday Shirt is a paper sewing pattern.

Garment Details: Everyone needs a fabulous shirt to dress up or down, that effortless throw-on that goes with everything and is versatile enough for all occasions. The Everyday Shirt is as smart or as casual as your day (or night!) demands.  

The Everyday Shirt has a relaxed fit with an open collar, dropped sleeves and cuff detail. The design features a mitred split hem, a subtle yet quirky detail that gives the opportunity for contrast topstitching, or a straight hem for a more boxy silhouette. The Everyday Shirt sewing pattern provides endless styling opportunities. 

The Everyday Shirt is a versatile sewing pattern that works just as well in lightweight denim, a smooth Tencel twill or a floaty viscose. Opt for a medium weight fabric for a more structured garment.

Sizing: This is a multi-size pattern, including sizes UK 6-22. Sizing, finished garment measurements and fabric requirements can be found here. 

Fabric Suggestions: Lightweight to medium-weight woven fabrics such as cotton, cotton lawn, cotton poplin, chambray, Tencel, linen, lightweight denim, viscose.

Trims required: Matching thread, iron-on interfacing (light/medium) 1m, 6x12mm buttons.

Skill Level: Intermediate skill level.

Seam allowances are included in the pattern. 

Beautifully packaged printed patterns include an instruction booklet and one or more pattern sheets, depending on the size of the product.
