   this shirt is pretty big and breezy, but pretty straightforward to make. this was my first collar and I found the instructions pretty confusing and had to supplement with a youtube video, but otherwise this is was pretty easy to made and I don’t hate the results!

   I made this in a Voile and it turned out cute. It’s a little too roomy in the abdominal area but it’s nice on a hot day. This is only the second or third Style Arc pattern I’ve made. I’m learning to make sure I know a skill (darts, collars, etc) before I buy as the instructions are vague at best.

   Stand collars have always eluded me. I was hoping that the Hayward Tunic would prove different. Even with precise cutting, marking, and stitching, the collar didn’t look right. I undid all the work and reapplied the collar without the stand, resulting in a camp shirt collar. I also shortened the shirt about 3 inches. The Hayward has already become a favorite!

   Love this pattern although I should have made the smaller size – it is quite big – comes together so easily and really looks great. I know this is going to be my go to top now.

Choosing your pattern size is the most important step and we will help you determine this with these easy to follow steps.

1. When taking your measurements ensure that you take them against your skin and not over clothing. One can wear a comfortable bra and knickers whilst measuring, as this will provide you with the most accurate measurements.
2. Tape measure has to sit firmly around the points you are measuring. But be careful not to pull it too tight, as this will give you the incorrect size.
3. When measuring circumferences (B, C, D, E) it is important to note that the tape measure must remain parallel to the floor. It is sometimes best to take the measurements in front of a mirror; this will help you see the angle of the tape measure.
4. You will only require the basic body measurements to determine your pattern size which is indicated on our mannequin below:

A. Shoulder Breadth

Place the tape at the edge of the shoulder. Measure along the top of the shoulder blade/across the highest point of the shoulders to the other edge, following the natural slope and allow an extra finger for ease of any movement.

B. Upper Arm Girth

This point is taken as a circumference at your widest point of your upper arm.

C. Bust

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the fullest part of your chest.

D. Waist

This point is taken as a circumference and taken at the smallest part of your waist.

E. Hip

This point is taken as a circumference parallel to the floor at the widest part of your hips.
