Cottage Shirt by The Sewing Workshop

Featured ~ Pamela Klingensmith

Hello Sewing Friends!

The colorful shirt I am wearing is the Cottage Shirt from The Sewing Workshop. The pattern is available in printed format, or in digital format.

Back in early June, Sewing expert Linda Lee made a video detailing this pattern and fabric. The Sewing Workshop was offering the fabric, buttons, and thread as a kit, so I thought I would give it a try. It reminds me of a camp shirt and I used to wear a lot of camp shirts in the late 1980’s. 😉

It sews up into a very full, boxy shirt. That is how the pattern is intended to finish. So don’t expect a fitted, body con button up.

The shirt features a six-button closure, collar with a stand, arm bands, a yoke and an extra deep bottom hem with side vents..

For a video review, lots of chatter about color analysis, and more views of the shirt, head to my You Tube channel:

Thank you for reading my blog. I appreciate my readers very much. If you are so led, please leave a comment.

Sewing is my passion and I always have a notion to sew, but sometimes I get distracted with other crafty endeavors. I share my creative accomplishments (and sometimes failures) here on my blog. I am a licensed Martha Pullen beginning sewing instructor and serger instructor. For 5 years, I taught new owners how to use their Bernina sewing machines at my local Bernina dealer, and for 2 years I taught serger project classes at my local Baby Lock dealer. These days, my professional time is spent retailing handmade purse and bag making supplies and patterns. I also sell a small selection of fabric as well as my handmade bags and purses.

    1. Hi Tim! Thanks for your comment. I am almost embarrassed at how long it has been since I posted anything. Life has changed a LOT. My husband retired, we are moving across the country, and life has become filled with business. Once we are settled in our new home, I plan to begin blogging again. Thanks for checking in with me. Pam
