BONUS! Little Boy's Shirt

Three shirts in one day... I must be crazy or something. Anyhow, here's the little boy's version of the McCall's 3087.

I drafted the pattern from my TNT boy's shirt pattern and modified it to be fairly close to the adult McCall's.

Here's a closeup of the collar:

Isn't it perfect for a little boy who has a St. Patrick's Day birthday?

Men's Shirt from MPB sewalong

I've been taking part in the men's shirt sewalong over at Male Pattern Boldness, but I've been using McCall's 3087 rather than the Negroni by Colette Patterns. I've got nothing against the Negroni, it's just that I TOTALLY and completely heart the McCall's.

I found some amazing vintage plaid fabric and decided I was going to make the short sleeved version. And then I found this amazing shirting in the red tag bin at the local Mega Fabric Mart which meant I HAD to make the long sleeve version, too.

And lest you think I'm a total underachiever, I decided my son needed a similar shirt for his birthday. But that's in March, so I've got some time!

Behold, the McCall's 3087!


I'll be adding more details on the process over at my blog.
