On That Sewing Blab in April, we focused on shirts – shirt making, tips, techniques and thrifting.

I grabbed a remnant fabric from my stash and made New Look 6407, View A.

It has lots of design lines you can adjust to fit you better. I did a forward shoulder adjustment and a sway back adjustment.

More curves means a few more adjustments, like I’ll adjust the back again for the next shirt.

The front sits fairly well and this fabric has no stretch in it.

There are a lot of variations within this pattern so I know I’ll use it again. Once you know how to adjust patterns to cater to your curves, sewing just gets easier.
