I just realized that I have not posted a picture of Louise Cutting's
Easy Ageless Cool campshirt that I finished earlier in the spring. Sadly it's not easy to photograph without being modelled, but here it is flat on the cutting table. The fabric is a quilting cotton with kind of a retro mottled print. It was easy to sew, though I think next time I'lI use a different method to miter the corners. I thought LC's instructions were a little confusing. On the other hand the mitering on the vents came out pretty well, though I don't think I'd let LC inspect them. Also next time I'll make it an inch or two longer. Why didn't I do that this time? It's a standard alteration for me. I did remember to lengthen the sleeves by two inches to accomodate my ape-arms.
I also really like Louise's unique one piece collar construction. It makes everything lie nice and flat with minimal bulk.
