This tee shirt is wonderful. I’ve made two of them so far. Iove it. I also sent you a message regarding the laundry day tee. I was supposed to have that with my order, but I can not find neither hide nor hair of it.

Hi Cheryl, I checked your orders and I don’t see a purchase for the LDT. You’re safe to purchase it. Don’t forget- you can get it for free with the code in the FB Pattern Support Group. 🙂

This is a wonderful pattern, especially if you’re just getting started. I needed to make a few adjustments to accommodate my figure, which were easy to make and love the results. With all of the sleeve length and neck options this is a year round pattern. Will definitely be making more of these!

This pattern is easy to follow, very basic. It’s great that the neckline variations are included. I made the XS, my size according to the measurement chart. There is significant positive ease, which has a dramatic effect on the XS. The fit was too boxy for me.

I love this pattern and agree it is a wardrobe staple. 2 are hanging in my closet already. One of my favorite parts is the links to help you with different parts like making the vee neckline. If you too are a beginner, you don’t need to worry about it being too difficult to tackle or enjoy. In fact, I can’t wait to make more. 🙂

This is my go-to, TNT (tried and true), favorite t-shirt pattern. It is the perfect length and fits so well. I love the v-neck version most of all. Neckbands are my nemesis but Love Notions provides terrific instructions and video tutorials which allowed me to sew perfect neckbands on this pattern. The Love Notions patterns give me so much confidence in my sewing and make me feel like a seasoned pro. This pattern also serves as a great base pattern for hacking.

This T-shirt pattern will be a staple in my wardrobe! I have tried several other t-shirt patterns but many of them are either too loose or too tight or the neckline is too low/high. This pattern has the right amount of ease and neckline is just right. I of course graded to fit my size and lengthened the bodice for my height.

Fantastic pattern! It really is a “classic” tee, I have made about 6 of these so far. I have used different necklines, different sleeve lengths, and different fabrics, so they all look very different. I love the full bust piece as well, this option has saved me some work. I highly recommend this pattern, you wont need another tee shirt pattern!

I’ve made two so far when I was doing a “try my different t shirt patterns to find which one I like best”. For the midst part I really like it, though I find that for me the fabric affects fit. I LOVE the v neckline. It is perfect, not too deep and not too high, exactly what a tshirt should be. I also really appreciate that the sleeves aren’t snug. So many tshirts are super snug in the bicep and that affects how it fits elsewhere, but this is perfect. In general I really like the pattern, it was my 2nd favorite of the different ones I tried 🙂

Really love this pattern! It’s like it was made for me. I’ve only had to make 1 adjustment to shorten the bodice. Everything else fits me perfectly. I am currently sewing my third classic tee – a scoop neck 3/4 sleeve. I’ve made a crew neck and a v-neck short sleeve tee. After I made those, I told my friend these were the best fitting tees that I own! This is the first pattern I’ve tried with knit fabric, and I’ve got more Love Notions patterns lined up to sew.

Wow! I have made a bunch of clothes in the last 6 months or so, mainly tops. Scoop neck and boat neck seem to be the norm in indie patterns and the big 4. I like v-neck tops the most and had the most beautiful deep red crushed velvet. I used this pattern to make a v-neck top with elbow length sleeves. My measurements fit size Large best and I used the full bust front option. THIS TOP FIT PERFECT!!!! It is a gorgeous top with this fancy fabric, but the pattern is casual enough for wearing with jeans or slacks to the office. This pattern has so many options and will be an absolute staple in my me-made wardrobe. Thanks so much!

To add to my previous review; I did remove about 1.5 inches from the neck band. I learned the hard way and had to take it off after the top was made. From now on I will make the neckband over all 3 inches shorter.

I love this pattern! It truly is the classic tee. I think I have made every variation and even done some hacks of my own. I lot the fit, the simpleness of the pattern and its versatility!

The classic tee was my first t-shirt and knit pattern I have ever sewn. The instructions are easy to understand and I love the fit.

This was my first LN pattern made at their sewing retreat in 2018. It was easy & fits very well. Thank you for a great pattern new garment makers can do successfully!

Not only was it totally painless to download and print this pattern, the directions provided made this a very positive experience. I made the full bust version for my 5’8″ daughter, and she loves it! The v-neck came out so perfectly that I’m on cloud 9!

Wow! I have made a bunch of clothes in the last 6 months or so, mainly tops. Scoop neck and boat neck seem to be the norm in indie patterns and the big 4. I like v-neck tops the most and had the most beautiful deep red crushed velvet. I used this pattern to make a v-neck top with elbow length sleeves. My measurements fit size Large best and I used the full bust front option. THIS TOP FIT PERFECT!!!! It is a gorgeous top with this fancy fabric, but the pattern is casual enough for wearing with jeans or slacks to the office. This pattern has so many options and will be an absolute staple in my me-made wardrobe. Thanks so much!

To add to my previous review; I did remove about 1.5 inches from the neck band. I learned the hard way and had to take it off after the top was made. From now on I will make the neckband over all 3 inches shorter.
