It is perfect for male puppies, gives them a very formal and elegant look.

This will be the first of several shirt designs I plan to do. It will be the first and most
simple for those who need to make a shirt but the easiest way possible.
Later I will create other shirt designs with more details and complexity, more formal,
suitable for ceremonies and special days.

So let’s start!

FIRST OF ALL A LITTLE CLARIFICATION:


Basically there are two types of collars. The simplest, made from only one piece for
example the polo’s collars. And also there are those that have two parts: the collar and
the stand (a strip of fabric that supports the collar)

In this design, as you can see, the collar is made from one piece, without the part of the
stand, the collar is attached directly to the body shirt, that’s because I say it’s a simpler
collar.

Here some pictures of Tara with her shirt on an outdoor photo shoot…

With these patterns you can make a formal shirt for wedding but you can also make
more casual shirts like Hawaiian style or square.
In the case that you need a shirt to wear a tie or bow tie although this design goes
without stand you can use it alike.
When sewing the collar it is recommended to place a thick fabric or interfacing between
the two pieces of fabric to make it more rigid.

ABOUT THE FABRICS:


For more formal shirts I recommend to use light or neutral plain colors or with very thin
stripe, and for more casual shirts flowers or larger squares.

You can add accesories such as pockets, shoulder strap, cu!s, etc…

AND LET’S GO WITH PATTERNS …

Below you can see a preview of the patterns:

There are 5 patterns:

1.Back: cut with the fabric folded in half
