We want to share some of all-time favorite patterns for basic T-shirts. These patterns are great for knit fabrics with strong prints, like the Rows Garden fabric below. Sometimes the fabric needs to do all the talking. In those times simple designs work best. Plus, they are quick and easy to sew.

 Rows Garden  is a 180 gsm (5.3 oz) jersey with moderate 50% stretch with firm recovery. Vibrant print of this fabric is both the attraction and the challenge. Thisprint has strong linear look. We think that excessive design details will be either lost or will clash with the print. For that reason, good basic T would make the best choice. We think that some moderate gathers around the neckline will look good as well. We don't think it's absolutely necessary to match the pattern through the armholes. However, we think it's important that sleeves match each other.

Here are some of our pattern suggestions.

As always, we greatly appreciate your feedback and suggestions. Let us know what fabrics you would like us to carry and how we can make your Sawyer Brook shopping experience more enjoyable.
