 Birdsong: The Shirt and Blouse Pattern

This is a sewing pattern PDF (not the finished garment) for a kids shirt pattern.  The boys shirt sewing pattern includes the peter pan collar blouse:see here.

The trousers pattern shown in the photos is available here.

The Birdsong Fabric range is available in my shop at Spoonflower- see fabric buying info on the details tab.

This girls or boys shirt sewing pattern can be worked as a girls or boys school shirt (a formal or uniform shirt), or with applique bands for a more street-style look. Both version of this girls or boys school shirt or blouse can be created with long or short sleeves. They are worked with external seams so that they are sensory friendly. No more morning meltdowns!  The front band and cuffs can be fastened with Velcro which is easier for little hands to manage – although buttons can be used.

Features for your Sensory Child
