Since designing the Taffeta Holiday Shirt for Classic Sewing article, Rae has made several versions of the open collar shirt. This one, for herself, is crafted in a very light weight striped cotton, creating a cool summer shirt – perfect whether providing a little protection from the sun or an overly air-conditioned environment. Follow Rae’s directions in Summer Shirt with an Open Collar to make your own variation on Shirt Variations for the TRJ.
The Lavender shirt also incorporates the two-piece sleeve from Jean Jacket Variations, modified to a 3/4 length, and a back yoke with pleated lower back, described in Rain or Shine Variations. Get all the Tabula Rasa Jacket variation patterns so you can mix and match your own creations!
