My January make for Project Sew It was a self drafted T-shirt pattern in a beautiful snow tiger fabric. I named it Tulip T-shirt, after it's tulip like shaped back. On the Dutch blog I got lot's of requests for a tutorial, so I made a second version and took pictures while drafting the pattern and sewing it. The tutorial is written in Dutch but comes with clear pictures, and I am always willing to help if you don't understand! The free tutorial can be found HERE.
Today I present you the second version, with it's special tulip-like back piece.
This time I opted for medium length sleeves, since spring has finally arrived in Belgium. I added a decorative cap sleeve, for which I used the ruffle pattern piece of the Cocoon Dress but skipped the gathering.
The piping used in the back piece returns in the shoulder parts.
The fabric is a super soft one by Nosh Organics, won at the Compagnie M. - contest. The colors are not my favorites and I wouldn't buy this myself, but I really like the way it turned out! (the rest of the knit fabric will become the lining of the Berlin Coat I'm working on)
My best friend Jan was in charge of taking pictures. He is very artistic, and so are his photos!
Are you planning a Tulip T-shirt too? My next version will be one for men!
Lovely pics indeed. I love this version of the tee. Piping running across shoulders is a lovely detail.
ReplyDeleteThank you Jenya! You know how to make the piping now, so no more excuses ;-)
