The Breeze Shirt pattern instructions also include videos for every step!
I sewed this out of linen as a work shirt for my husband. I had made the children's breeze shirt many times and this one was just as easy. I modified the measurements a little to fit my husband's very tall height. The resulting shirt looks great and he says it is very comfortable. I highly recommend this pattern!
Really enjoyed making up this shirt and will certainly be making more for hubby as he loves it
This pattern and the tutorial are very clear and beautiful!
I've made a Breeze shirt for my husband and it came out so nicely with the sleeve tabs, neckline details and French Seams. I will be making another one with pockets next time and I predict this pattern will get a lot of use! With this pattern/tutorial and all the others from Twig and Tale I've seen so far, you get so many little tips along the way that take your sewing skills, and the finished garments, to the next level. The videos are really helpful too for someone like me who is often confused by diagrams. Thanks T&T
I'm not an experienced sewer by any means, yet making this shirt was not difficult. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. It was nice that the French seams allowed for a clean finish on the inside of the shirt. My fabric did not have a clear front side and back side -- made form a linen duvet cover that was destined for the Goodwill -- so I ended up sewing a couple of pieces inside out and had to take apart and resew. So take care to pay attention when assembling. Very satisfied with the result.
Super comfortable
I love my breeze shirt and I have received many compliments. My sewing level is advanced beginner. The pattern and directions were good except that the way the yoke was completed and attached was new for me. I did figure it out eventually so all is good. I did not make the sleeve tabs because I’ve had sleeve tabs back in the 70’s and rarely used them. I will make another shirt before the end of the summer.
This was a great pattern with easy to follow instructions, especially with the help of the youtube videos.
This was my first time sewing French seams so the youtube videos were great (it took me a bit to get my head around sewing wrong sides together).
I will be using french seams for extra strength on other garments.
