i drew the shirt pattern but when i started sewing the collar realised that unless i wanted an elvis vegas style shirt i had to make a smaller collar , im pleased with how it turned out with the slightly rounded bottom bit but i think if i make another i may make it a bit wider and slightly longer , the plan was for it to do up to the neck but that didnt happen ....
the trousers are just standard elasticated waist that i make all the time .....
I made the coat out of thick grey wool and lined it in the same fabric as the shirt, i could have made it a bit bigger though as the gotz are a bit chunkier , i found it a bit odd sewing on poppers and buttons on the opposite side than usual, i felt clumsy like i was doing something backwards ...
All i think looks quite sweet until i put the hood up , yes the gotz are bigger but i forgot the no noses have larger heads and this one loads of hair so yes the hood goes up but i think he may faint from being strangled if left up for very long .....
You put yourself down too much Sarah, this is great and I am sure whoever it is for will be thrilled with it! Your work is as lovely as always.
ReplyDeletethanks lorraine ....just needs a bit of tweaking:) xxxx
DeleteWhat a great outfit Sarah. I love this shirt great style and fabric, I like that it's open at the neck. I think the hood is a good size it will help keep his hair in place! Those no nose boys do like to have it sticking out all over the place.
ReplyDeleteA fabulous boys outfit..people will be wanting more...... :)xxx

DeleteIt's wonderful, Sarah. Bertie is not allowed near the laptop until after you post again, though - can't have these little guys all demanding a winter jacket from you or your regular, girl customers will be very upset! Jenni x
