Kristin T-shirt Sewing Pattern – Studio Rosado
Sewing instructions:
Note: for this garment and other stretch jersey projects we recommend using a 4 thread overlock stitch but you can also use a sewing machine + zigzag stitch.
1. Joining The Left Shoulder Seam:
Lay t-shirt’s right sides together and serge (or sew) together the left shoulder seam. Press the seam towards the back.
2. Joining The Finishing Detail Around The Neck:
Lay the t-shirt’s right side together with the folded strip’s right side. Lightly stretch the strip while stitching it around the neckline, that will ensure the the neckline lies neatly on you. Cut off the surplus of the strip.
Work from the right side of t-shirt to topstitch the strip 5mm next to joining seam catching inside strip.
3. Joining The Right Shoulder Seam:
Lay t-shirt’s right sides together and serge together the left shoulder seam. Press the seam towards the back.
4. Side Seams:
Lay the t-shirt’s right sides together and serge together the side seams. Press the seams towards the back.
5. Seam Reinforcement:
Backstitch with a sewing machine the seams that are ending with an open overlock stitch to avoid threads tearing at the ends of the seams.
Reinforce the upper side of the right shoulder seam, both lower sides of shoulder seams, the upper and lower sides of both side seams.
Ta - daah!
