Pendleton Wool Shirt for Tim

One of my latest shirts for Tim... made last November and worn tons since then!

(You can also see him wearing it in these photos I took of his Akerfeldt Coat)

I made this from some beautiful wool fabric Tim and I picked up a couple years ago when visiting Portland. 


It came from the Pendleton Woolen Mill store- an outlet with Pendleton goods and fabric. We bought several pre-cut pieces of medium weight woven wool in plaids and stripes. Lovely to sew with!
 

Pockets, cuffs, yoke and button bands cut on the bias to avoid too much plaid matching, of course.


Finished with some heavy duty snaps. 

BTW, some of Tim's colleague call him "DJ Snaps" because they learned he used to DJ in college and he wears a lot of shirts that have snaps on them. He will never live it down.
