Navy linen t-shirt

There is not much to tell about this new t-shirt except that I made it back in February as I was in desperate need for new summer tops.


Using my TNT t-shirt pattern KS 3740 this was a very quick make with the linen knit I purchased in Cairns in July last year.

One of the things I did differently was to use my Juki overlocker to sew the tape into the shoulder seams as I had never done this before.


I also used the binder on my Coverstitch to add the neckband but I forgot to take a photo.

The rest of the top came together quite quickly and after I had glued the hems in place I used my Coverstitch to sew the hems.


This is how I wore it to my ASG meeting at The Remnant Warehouse today,


and Roscoe was very happy to see me home and was demanding a pat.

Nice t-shirt. Your coverstitching looks great. I hadn't thought about glueing the hem, I tend to use a thermabond type stuff. I do love a linen knit and yours is a gorgeous colour, you look very smart.

Very nice t-shirt and the fit is spot on. Linen knit sounds wonderful.
