Today I tackle the shirt that will be worn with my 1890's cycling costume! It's a simple little project and a staple in any ladies wardrobe (well, if you lived in the early 1900s it was).
Blog post with more information, book/pattern recommendations, and inspiration photos: doxiequeen1.wordpress.com/2016/06/10/making-a-shirtwaist-1890s-cycling-costume-part-three
For this project I used:
Two yards of cotton non stretch shirting. Purchased from Dianas fabric in NYC.
Shell buttons from etsy.
Snaps/interfacing/cotton sateen from Jo-anns.

Also since someone always points it out - sewing over pins is bad! It’s a nasty habit I have and one I don’t work too hard to kick since it makes sewing so much faster. Personally i’ve only broken one or two needles that way in the entire time i’ve been sewing, so that isn’t a major concern of mine. But it isn’t something I would recommend doing!

Music is “Ballade no. 3 in A flat Major Op. 47” performed by Donald Betts and originally written by Frederic Chopin. It was acquired through Musopen and does not belong to me!
Sorry for the bumps in the audio, the neighbors were getting a new roof and my mic decided to pick up on the hammering!
