The Modern Sewing Co PDF Classic Shirt Sewing Pattern

The Classic shirt sewing pattern by The Modern Sewing Co is everything that the name suggests.

A classic shirt construction with an understated, modern cut. This style is fitted on the shoulders and features neat sleeves which gives it an elegant feel.

The style flares very slightly from the underarm to give some room around the bust and finishing
in a slight A-line shape.

Down at the hem we have a deep V-scoop to give easy access to trouser pockets and the back features a big pleat to give the body more volume. When sewing this piece you will go through all the traditional shirt making techniques to give you a timeless, high quality wardrobe staple.
