2025-Oct: Festive Flowers shirt (woven)!

I recently made a shirt for myself, a long time in the making! Behold:


I wore it to a Diwali festival and it certainly was festive! I hid some red Kaffe Fassett fabric inside the collar, for extra joy. ;)

It's the Presto tunic pattern from Love Notions. One caveat: the instructions for doing the collar are NOT GREAT. I made a practice and the collar looked like trash. Also I thought that interfacing it was a bad idea, since it messed it up even more. So for the real shirt, I found an alternate way from Lifting Pins and Needles (the third in this video), did NOT interface it, and it came out great!

I just like the afternoon light on the gold metallic print. ^_^
