Shirt Season Started Early

When you have 20 years of blog archives, it’s easy to identify patterns. In this case, every spring I start thinking about sewing button-up shirts. It’s early this year–previous posts were in April or May–but it’s also been an unseasonably warm winter so that makes sense.

I have two at a time going right now: One in a Liberty from deep stash (RIP, Fabric.com) that will be my “Easter dress,” and another in a woven stripe I picked up with the last of a gift card from Sewtopia. (There’s also a cut from Salt Lake Sewciety waiting to be a different button-up shirt pattern.)

Two shirts being sewn with collars but no sleeves. One is small pink floral and one is blue and purple stripes.

(Speaking of blog archives, that Liberty is a different colorway of a shirt I made in 2016 that I hulked out of but still have. Good to know my taste is pretty consistent.)
