DIY BASEBALL SHIRT: Draft your own
This is my baseball shirt... It's great, except for a few annoying faults of my own making... Ones you can avoid by watching my handy video and the supporting films...
If you do want to make your own you'll need a basic body block... I give a full guide to that in my drafting a body block film:
• Complete guide to drafting a body block
Or you could clone an existing garment like I do here:
• Pattern cloning a simple garment
but @withwendy dose it better (she always dose)
You'll also need some understanding of fitting a garment which I cover in this film:
• Drafting, sewing, and fitting a toile
For the sleeves, well I do have a sleeve block film:
• Complete guide to drafting a sleeve block
but you'll find out that this isn't so useful but it dose cover some important principals
You'll also want to know about flat felled seams and French seams too, right? I've got you covered with these:
• Full guide to a real flat-felled seam on a...
• how to get PERFECT French seams... Every time
That should be everything you need to know to make a baseball shirt of your own but if I've missed anything ask away in the comments...
