I sewed a t shirt today instead of checking the news, it was a nice break and it came out just like in the pattern pictures (I paid for this pattern because some of the measurements on free sewing for the custom tshirt pattern were finicky and i couldn't tell if the finished pattern they made was wrong, and I wanted one that fit better to my measurements than the kind from the store)

maybe I'll wear the shirt tomorrow and take a picture to post

hello to the person on bsky who isn't bridged who asked for the pattern! I don't have a bsky account so I can't tag you from my fediverse account! It's this pattern, I will share my measurements in a CW in the next message: https://helensclosetpatterns.com/collections/all/products/jackson-tee-and-pullover

I made the tshirt pattern in a size 26 (intentionally going for a slightly boxier fit; I will want to style it with wider pants, I think, moving forward), my chest and hips generally measure somewhere between 49 and 52 inches at widest point depending what is going on for me that day, I am 5'6" so I didn't do any length alterations as it's already drafted for that height
