My partner has been wanting me to make them something for a while now but I've never had the motivation or the skill to be able to, so I decided to make them a cowl neck t shirt. I used a grey cotton jersey for the cool neck and draw strings (added extra) and a deep berry purple for the main bodice and sleeves of the top. Sewing the shirt was great, no hiccups (apart from me sewing the cowl neck inside out by accident but no worries it's sorted now) and it became a success! I had drafted my own custom menswear bodice and sleeve blocks and made the top from scratch in an afternoon. Very happy with the final outcome. It made me very happy to see my partner wear my creation that night and the day after. It was a "I did that" moment for sure. I have even started a new t shirt for them yesterday! There's nothing stopping my now!
Could this be the beginning of a new t shirt brand? Ryan Pilkington Creations?
