A really great shirt and my first attempt at a collar and packet. I had issues with the instructions which tell you to attach the collar before sewing the shoulder seams. Be sure to read all through the instructions and follow your instincts. 😄 I also found that I needed to make the tiniest tuck behind the packet in order to enable them to sit on top of each other. That may just be me though, or my linen. Will likely make another in the future.

I love the way my shirt turned out! But the pattern was not good – the written instructions are in the wrong order and don’t really follow the pictures. It’s just as well that I am a relatively experienced needlewoman. Photographs or a video blog would be useful for some areas (collar, placket). I would have liked a much larger font too – the current one is far too small. Next time I make this I will adapt it so that the sleeves have cuffs and are just slightly smaller around the wrist.

The Lennie shirt has a casual-sporty look that suits me well. It is very comfortable and not terribly difficult to make. I made mine from flannel, because I live in Wisconsin, USA and are in the middle of an extreme winter (temps at -30 C and two meters of snow so far). I have received many compliments from my friends on the shirt. This one is a winner!
