Creation: Flannel Shirt

Fabrics Used: Orchid Flannel

The Visionary: Peter, Male Pattern Boldness

Our Thoughts:  Peter from Male Pattern Boldness made a flannel shirt with our Orchid Flannel. We think he looks sharp!

My orchid flannel shirt is finished. I couldn't be more pleased with it.

I had originally intended to add breast pockets to the shirt fronts and got as far as making them (though not the flaps). But this organic flannel is so thick -- I'd label it chamois, really -- that it would have added too much bulk to an area where I'm already somewhat bulky.

I think a men's shirt looks more elegant without pockets, don't you?

I've worked with flannel in the past, but never flannel this thick and luxurious. I interfaced only the outward-facing collar stand and collar, skipping the front button placket and cuffs, which didn't need the extra body. The fabric was very easy to work with.
