I've had some of this fabric for quite a while but haven't been healthy enough to sew....until now!
I've been a fan of Palmer/Pletsch for decades. The patterns are well written and always have good tips on how to make the garment more professional looking. This pattern has a great fit tip for busty figures. Not my issue so I didn't use it but good to see in a t shirt pattern.
I used my new Dritz Styling Design Ruler to add some give at the hips. Not sure how I ever survived without this ruler! Once I altered the pattern, the trickiest part was cutting VERY thin knit fabric which wants to slide everywhere. Also an issue when sewing but I finally mastered it.
The neck bind it a smidge to big but it will do. On the next one, I'll remove 1/2 an inch before I start sewing. Here's the final shirt...
