I made this shirt today for my other half. It is using the same pattern that I made the other ones from. The fabric was off a market stall in Lewisham, London and cost me £2 a metre. Two metres was plenty enough as the fabric is a viscose and very wide. I had to buy some more interfacing which cost me £1.50 for a metre but I have loads left over. I already had some buttons in my tin so the cost of the shirt was about £4.25 if that plus a days work.
He will like this as he is always on about having a nice flowery shirt like you see the celebs wearing on the tele. He liked the blue flowery one but this is a it more bold. I can't wait till his birthday now in August to give it to him.
Gorgeous shirt Lesley, my hubby would love this.xx
