Excellent pattern. I just have to learn to petite it properly. The version I made was too long on me and made me look dumpy. I cut off the curved part at the bottom and just hemmed it straight and then it looked and fit great. Good basic pattern that I'll make again and again.
I made the Concord shirt, along with some Belmont leggings, as my first me-made outfit. I had never sewn garments or with a pattern before. The Concord pattern has so many different options for sleeve length, neckbands, and hem length, that this may be the only t-shirt pattern I ever need! I chose to go with short sleeves, the scoop neck, and the curved hem length. For a beginner, it was imperative that I trace which pattern lines I wanted to follow, because with so many options, it would have been easy to get confused. I really struggled attaching the neckband, but I really believe that can be chalked up to me being a beginner. I was able to hide a bit of my mistake at the back of the neckband, and I don't think it's really noticeable to anyone except me.
Overall the instructions were clear and easy to follow, and I'm already excited about what other versions of this shirt I can make!
This was my first shirt pattern. The booklet instructions are very detailed and are easy to follow. The only part I had trouble understanding was the neckband, but I looked up how to put the neckband in on YouTube. After that I finished the shirt in an hour.
I like this pattern because if gives you multiple modifications. You get, like, eleven shirt pattern out of this. I like that it gives two bust options.
Overall a great, simple shirt pattern for a person on any skill level.
Amazing!! For the first time a pattern fit me with no alterations!! Instructions were clear and I've got no grumbles! Would definitely recommend
The photo on the envelope bears no resemblance to the garment that results from making this as directed. I heeded the advice on PR and sized up, but even that wasn't enough to avoid the unattractive sausage casing effect. Won't be wearing it, even around the house. It went straight into the donation bin. Maybe someone 3 or 4 sizes smaller will get some use out of it.
