I used quilter\u2019s cotton in a copper gingham and I sewed up a size medium, which takes roughly 2 yards of fabric. The perfect amount of happy yardage.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/oliverands.com\/community\/content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AimeeVerdun1.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-77305 size-large\" src=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AimeeVerdun1-760x500.jpg\" alt=\"The perfect instant-gratification sewing project: Aimee's Verdun Woven T-Shirt\" width=\"760\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"\/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AimeeVerdun1-760x500.jpg 760w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AimeeVerdun1-500x329.jpg 500w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AimeeVerdun1-768x506.jpg 768w, \/\/o.osimg.net\/community\/content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/AimeeVerdun1-1200x649.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 760px) 100vw, 760px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>I can\u2019t even describe how quickly this shirt comes together.

I\u2019ve got a few friends longing to learn how to sew and this is a spectacular pattern for a new seamstress to sew up. There are so many ways that you could modify this pattern, from using contrasting fabric for the facings to hand stitching the facings down to give it that little extra bling. So go grab yourself a couple of happy\u00a0yards and an afternoon and give this pattern a try; you won\u2019t regret it!<\/p>\n<p>(Except the fact that you will want to go buy a few more happy yards so you can make even more!)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Verdun is a perfect instant-gratification sew.
