Myrna, the body is short as I pinned 6" of it up. We make our shirts with longer bodies so the girls can tuck them in and they don't come out when they are riding. This was a request from our cowgirls when we first started making shirts. That and a longer long sleeve.

That makes sense. I had thought about the tucking in part and short wasn't working for me. Thanks.

Ann  thanks, you always amaze me with the wonderful shirts you make - i had to ban DH from reading this site as he hankers after a shirt like these!  I made him a few when we first met 22 years ago (OMG it doesn't seem that long ago!) but lost the pattern I might go looking or can you suggest a good mens one?

Shams thanks for the info about the dress I had wondered if it was Miyake inspired.  I have changed the next one and added a tie from a Vogue skirt and DD says it looks better - I will take photos of me wearing them.

Karen thanks for the comments, the shrug is something I am very proud of as it was a morph from a New Look miles too small and a Burda Tshirt.  I have it in black brown and multi.  I always shied away from altering patterns but after reading others journey now enjoying trying the odd thing - I'll know I have advanced in this when I finally can contemplate a FBA!!

There's been lots of wonderful work shown here, and I've enjoyed it all!   But this thread is long enough--so I've locked this one and started a new one.      Please continue sharing on "Sharing, Inspiration and Project Photos XIX!" 

Thanks,
