Frequently Asked Questions

Is sewing a button-up shirt difficult?

The button-up is rated as a tailored-level project. The collar, placket, and buttonholes require precision, but the included instructions walk through each step.

What fabric should I use?

Shirting-weight cotton (poplin, broadcloth, or oxford cloth) is the classic choice. Chambray and lightweight linen also work well.
