Liam's Groovy Apple Shirt

Ottobre 3/20101 - 11 "Apple" Summer Shirt

I made this shirt yesterday in it's entirety, including tracing the pattern. It is from the Summer 2010 issue of Ottobre, and is known as the "Apple" summer shirt. I did a size 98, and as there wasn't a hem allowance marked on the pattern, I assumed there wasn't one. I added an extra inch, but only turned the hem up 1cm, but I think the length is quite good.

The fabric is "Groove" from Robert Kaufman that I purchased from Funky Fabrix using the voucher I won at Sew It Together. I used pearl snaps - I think I am going to have to get some more of these soon, I have been using them heaps.
