Get out your blue suede shoes, and get ready to do the Jailhouse Rock! Sew a midcentury-inspired open-collar sport shirt with this new pattern, inspired by the king himself, Elvis Presley. You can’t help falling in love with a shirt that features design elements such as a contrast yoke or a front pocket, a dramatic collar and lapel, optional piping, and our signature cuffed “bicep-hugging” sleeve. The Presley Shirt is a swank staple for the Atomic Age wardrobe and the perfect companion to your favorite Charm Patterns!

A big welcome to our first guest designer Collin Riley! In this video, Collin will take you through the entire process so you can really earn that menswear merit badge. 

xoxo,

Gertie

I just made this shirt and I want to say how much I loved Collin's video! He was a great teacher and I loved his sense of humor. Thanks for the fantastic design!!

I've just finished the shirt - and this video was so useful. I understand collars at last!
