Peek-a-boo t-shirt

"A t-shirt that doesn't look like you are wearing a t-shirt"- I thought this was a strange request until I saw 3 more women asking for the same thing. One of these women sent me a very long and emotional email about she struggled with her weight since she was a young girl, how she had never felt comfortable in her clothes, and how she hid for so many years under sweatpants and extra large hoodies. Sarah, that is her name, wrote how she has a dog now and she is walking regularly, but that sometimes she lacks the courage to step outside because she doesn't want to go back to the sweatpants and ugly t-shirts and that it is getting too hot for hoodies. She said she needed a top to feel good in, but at the same time comfortable while she is losing the weight. I think she is on to something and I figure she is not the only one. I hear you girl! Here is a free easy t-shirt pattern you can make in less than 2 hours and wear with leggings and a light jacket, to drop your kids at school and head to the gym or the park for a walk with the dog. It's all about looking good without having to make too much effort and what is best, it is super easy to make. I've made the pattern to cater for seven sizes from 8 to 20. The finished garment measurements are all below. This free easy t-shirt pattern is ideal for a curvy beginner sewist. A very loose fitting A-line top with a self-tied neckline.
