My first T-shirt, made with the overlocker. That machine is a game-changer!
I had 1.5 m of very soft thin rayon knit and I decided it was time to cut into it and try to make something nice and wearable for myself.
This is Burdastyle 6202 from their catalogue 01 / 2020. I bought the pattern this spring, intending it for Gaby, as I thought the puffed sleeve was a bit young for me, but I actually like it and I think it is the detail that makes the shirt.
However, next time I sew this T-shirt for myself, I intend to raise the neckline by a cm or two, as it is rather gaping for my taste, especially on the back.
Two bonus photos, trying to break the monotony with a few "Instagram-style" poses. I'm so awkward and unsophisticated when posing for photos despite almost a decade of blogging and posting photos of myself in hand-made clothes :) Maybe I should train in front of a mirror, ha-ha :)
Apart from the T-shirt, I also managed to make a new pair of underpants for myself (not seen on the pictures :), using the overlocker and a free pattern (for my size) from Shkatulka.
