The Shirt Maker's Express pattern is the perfect basic shirt with a modern fit, destined to be your "go-to" shirt pattern. With just a few options, Shirt Maker's Express will transform from a dress shirt made from fine Italian cotton shirting, to a comfortable sports shirt by using a cotton/linen plaid and even a casual over shirt when you choose corduroy or chambray. Optional back darts help give the wearer a trim look and Full Bust Adjustment instructions are included. Other options include cutting the Cuffs, Sleeve Plackets and the Yoke on the bias of plaids, stipes or checks to give added interest. Choose monochromatic thread for the dress shirt style and try contrasting topstitching on a sport or casual shirt.

Shirt Makers' Express
I love this pattern. I have never made a shirt before, now I have made two, one for my Mum and one for myself. The instructions are very good, I did struggle a bit with the 'burrito' part, but soon got the hang of it. I made the City Express jacket a couple of years ago, it is one of my favorite garments, I wear it a lot. Janet Pray is so good at making instructions simple and easy to follow. Love her videos.
