Notas	First time sewing a Lekala pattern for My Love. I am very impressed with this free pattern. My husband has very wide shoulders, not overly long arms, long body and a rather 'portly' tummy. The high black yoke gives extra ease. The body length is good, the collar is excellent. The arms are a wee bit too long....absolutely fine for a dress shirt but possibly a bit long for work. I sewed with a double yoke and as my fabric was very fine (pick-a-pick cotton) I interfaced the front self facings, both pieces of the collar, collar stand, cuffs and top of pocket. I finished with a narrow, double hem. Bravo Lekala!

Thank you Jane, Désirée, Newenka and Anne-Marie, how kind and lovely you all are!
This has inspired me to make other Lekala mens patterns. Out chaps have body/shopping issues too!
Anne-Marie Dionne

Every details are perfect! You are such a talented sewist, Nicole!

I agree with Jane and it encouraged me to make this shirt for my husband too. Thanks!

Your workmanship looks very professional. I might have to try this pattern for my husband. Like yours, 'the old man' has a little bit of a belly. LOL. I would probably make it as s short sleeve.
