Absolutely amazing patterns as always, I learnt so much from the detailed tutorial, both video and written. Having tried new techniques I'm now confident i could use them again on other projects. The shirt itself turned out so comfortable and is already a favourite!
Boys clothes can be so boring, but not this one. So fancy with the french seams all over, the inside as beautiful as the outside without the need for a serger.
The only tricky part was the twist at the front but the video tutorial helped me get through it easily.
I also love the button on the sleeves to get it shorter.
If you are looking for a pattern that is different, classy and comfortable, Ridgeway is the one for you.
If you're looking for a sensory friendly (hidden seams) top for children this is the one. It was the most challenging shirt I've made to date but it was worth it for this style. My son does have some sensory adversions when it comes to shirt seams and was happy to wear this shirt without issues. I made a long and short sleeves shirt out of small scraps of special Babywearing wrap fabric.
