First Shirt.

I recently completed my first shirt! I machine sewed it (with a lot of help from my Mom) and handstitched the button holes. I used this tutorial I found on the internet: http://www.nwta.com/patterns/pdfs/261MensShirt.pdf. I used unbleached 100% cotton muslin that I picked up from Hobby Lobby. It went together very nicely using the guide. I hope to do more in the near future. Eventually, I want to handstitch the whole shirt.
Here are few pictures of the shirt. I am wearing the shirt in the last picture at Hart Square in Catawba County, NC. I am on the left. My brother, Alan, is on the right.
