I just finished this set in flannel for my daughter. I am so thankful for this video, it was a true friend during the process!

I just read the pattern, and although it is very clear I am so happy to see that there is a video tutorial. I am definitely a visual learner!

Just finished the top minus the buttons and button holes. Almost done with the pants! Very straight forward pattern! Perfect for the summer time

What size are you wearing? Do you recommend staying normal size for oversized fit or sizing up? Thank you ❤️

This looks like a unisex style shirt. Would it look good on men too?

Hi Jennifer, I'm sorry we only do PDF/digital patterns. We just don't have the resources to do paper at this stage! Hopefully, if we grow big enough we will be able to fund some paper patterns. 💗

Ah, I see 😊😊😊 If I should print it out, how many pages is the pattern? ☺️

Thank you! I am really excited about making a linen set for the summer. Is the seam allowance 5/8 when you attach the stand to the shirt? I made a toile of this and struggled with the stand. When I attached the stand to the shirt and pressed the seam allowance up into the stand it ran into the upper stand seam allowance and created too much bulk around the curve on the very end of the stand. I made the mistake of trimming it and then it was too short to tuck it in. I ended up taking it all off and changing the curve slightly and it went on better. Is there a change in seam allowance there? Thanks again for this beautiful pattern.

Hi Laura, thank you for sewing the Tamarama Set :) Yes it is 1.5cm or 5/8 inch seam allowance in all of the collar and stand steps. Some fabrics are more bulky and it can make the step of attaching the collar to the neckline. Firstly I would suggest pressing at each step as this will flatten the seam allowances, and reduce bulk. 2nd tip is clip the seam and trim off a little less then you have previously as then you will have enough length in the seam allowance to tuck inside the collar stand. My 3rd tip - It s very important to transfer all of the circle marks to you cut out pieces. This is the best tip I can give, you find the circle marks on the collar stand, collar and neckline of the shirt section. Hopefully that helps :)
