I have made a few t-shirts but it’s so nice to get a pattern with so many options. I did find a couple of small errors in the printing of the pattern but nothing that can’t be fixed easily. The instructions in these patterns are very clear and the t-shirts fit
really well. Not sure how many WBM patterns I have but it’s quite a lot and I use them over and over.
This is a superb pattern. You can create a whole wardrobe of T shirts with this one pattern. For me, being slight, the fitted style is perfect in the body. the adjustment I made was in the length as I am short. The instructions are very clear. Enjoy!!!
I have made 1 with long sleeves and 2 with the short sleeves, and I am very happy, it fits very well. I can recommended the pattern.👍🙂
I wanted to find a pattern that could be used repeatedly, and I like this one. Very versatile. I also wanted to find a way to reuse old T-shirts that might not be so well fitted. So far, it has worked great! I have made one new t-shirt with a boat neck from two old festival t-shirts. I will do more of them.
Thinking that I might alter it a bit and put on some darts for an even better fitting. Let's see how it goes!
I have to say that this is, without a doubt, my favourite T-shirt pattern!
I bought it quite a while ago, before I knew all that much about fitting. However, as I continued to experiment with the pattern, I was able to tweak it to fit me extremely well. I have a short torso, so took about 2" from the bodice, graded from a size 10 bodice to a size 12 in the shoulders and arms, and did a full-bicep adjustment on the sleeves to add an extra 1/2" of width, as I find most modern patterns are drafted for slim arms.
However, having done all that, I've been able to use it to create a few shirts which I love. I find stretch-fabric can be hard to come by secondhand, but since I have recently found more I intend to whip up a few more versions. I've also now used this pattern to check and help better fit other stretch fabric sewing patterns because I've made it to fit me exactly the way I like T-shirts to.
I'm not sure if this is allowed, but I also have a full pattern review up on my blog: https://stitchsessions.org/2022/07/01/comfortable-shirts-with-the-wardrobe-builder-t-shirt/
