    Hey Meredith,
    Got an email last night that looks like I am getting another set of Easter eggs supplies and I didn’t order a second set. The address belongs to me, but not the email. Would you check it out?
    Thanks so much

Hi! I literally just finished my first button up shirt today, the McCalls 7575. I love the options you just posted, esp the recital shirt!! Wow! You mentioned getting your printing done at Office Depot. Are they able to handle all sizes? Like what would go to a plotter? Is the cost difference there compared to a pattern plotter printer?ReplyCancel

  Hi there, Dawnya! I always get my large printing done there. Most patterns are 36″ wide by whatever length. Generally the cost is between $8-10 for a pattern sheet, which I think is totally worth the time it saves me from tracing or taping. I wrote a big, long post about why I have converted to PDF’s, and while I found it to be hot button topic, for me, its a great option. :) You can read that post along with some other info about PDFs HEREReplyCancel

I second the vote for the Leisl classic shirt. I have made about 5 of them and it is a great pattern. A couple of the ones I made were sleeveless. The men’s Everyday Shirt is also a winner. I’ve made two of these for my husband and he LOVES them.ReplyCancel

  Aren’t her patterns fantastic? That’s how I’ve learned pretty much everything I know about sewing clothes! She is so thorough, and doesn’t leave out any details. I have the men’s shirt and I wanted to make it about two years ago, and yet it sits in my room. I should get on that! Thank you for the reminder. :)ReplyCancel

I’ve tried all four patterns, and they’re all good. The one I’ve made most is the Archer – although I make it a few sizes smaller since it’s such a generous fit. My favorite is the Granville, though. I like that it is fitted, with the three separate pieces for the back panel. I do have to modify it, though, as I’m not that curvy – I add to the waist and bring the hips in, and then the fit is perfect! And I had no difficulty with the pdf, I wonder if they fixed the problem you ran into??
Another good one is the Cheyenne from Hey June – lots of options and great instructions. ReplyCancel
