Strawberry T-shirt

 I've really enjoyed sewing this little tee in a fun strawberry print jersey.

I used my altered New Look 6735 pattern, raised the front neckline to be more of a round neck and added a wider band. The sleeves are elbow length as that was the longest I could get from the small length of fabric.

I picked up an 80cm remnant of this gorgeous strawberry print from a local charity shop's craft section.

Almost looks like a cycling Polka Dot Jersey!

I think this one will make me smile every time I wear it.

I decided to use an aqua with pink polka dot remnant from Auntie J's stash, together with some printed jersey fabric I bought from the Monday Market Man in Chesterfield to make some summer PJs. I thought the aqua and pink tones work well together.

The effect of the polka dots is lost from a slight distance.

I used a plain pink jersey for the arm and neck bands

The PJ trousers are New Look 6216 and the top is the Itch to Stitch Lago tank.

The polka dot fabric is cotton lawn, the print jersey is viscose with a touch of elastane.
