Review on Simplicity 8180 Shirt Sewing Pattern by Gelin Battle

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Good idea; poor instructions

The pattern is not for beginners. Very few instructions. Mostly foreign languages, so I can't comment on the content, but the English is too abbreviated. For example, it says "pin sleeves together right sides together, pin sleeve to edge of armhole," but you don't have to baste first to get the sleeve in place. It won't work if you don't do it right, and how would a newbie know that? Good idea; bad guide.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • flimsy
