Another sewing project show-off post

I think I'm going to have to put all these together in a Memories category. I'm starting to accumulate rather a lot.

Anyway...here's how it turned out. I'm particularly proud of the buttonholes.

He looks good. The shirt makes him look even better. Well done!

Right...

Have you ever had so many comments try to come out at once they choke your brain?

Re: hehe

Why, yes, as a matter of fact. =)

Thoughts on the craftsmanship, if nothing else?

Re: hehe

I'd have to take a closer look physically at it before I commented... At least about the craftmanship...

Alright. Make him wear it for you next time you go gaming or whatever. And make sure you've got friends around. =D

To my unprofessionally trained eye, it looks like a professionally made shirt. And he looks damn good in it. Is he doing tai chi in that second shot, or just raising his arm to show the fall of the shirt? In either case, you did a really nice job.

Knowing Ian, it could be either. He was a little miffed about the design of the sleeves - because of the way they're attached, they tend to be a few inches short when he reaches up. He's trying to bribe me into making him another shirt without ruffles and with the sleeves set differently, though everyone I've asked says the ruffles look great on him, even if they don't quite jibe with his personality. But then, that was sort of the point - he needs to loosen up. =D

Anyway, thanks for the compliments. ;)

Sorry man, dont know Tai Chi, and the local martial arts scene was pretty much limited to karate (shotokan?) last I checked.

Bribe attempts continuing.
