The fabric was sitting patiently in my stash, but then Peter started harassing me about it, so I decided to sew the shirt. I used a Vogue pattern in size XL, since Peter is 6&#8217;2&#8243; and of Danish descent (no dainty bones). I don&#8217;t know who designs these patterns, but the shirt is huge. It was also too short, so I had to add some extra fabric to the bottom! I also did a pretty crappy sewing job. Sewing guru Mrs. H told me today that using a jeans needle is helpful on tightly woven fabrics (like nylon and Gortex). I&#8217;ll remember that next time! Despite all my troubles, Peter seems to like his shirt, and I guess that&#8217;s what counts.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/pp in new shirt.JPG\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"pp in new shirt.JPG\" src=\"http:\/\/www.supereggplant.com\/archives\/pp in new shirt-thumb.JPG\" width=\"180\" height=\"240\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><br \/>\nHope everyone had a nice weekend.
