My latest make is the Sewing Workshop Pattern Whistles Shirt.
The Whistles shirt is the one in the lower left in the above picture, with the long tapered ( whistles) flanges. The fabric is painterly panels from Noelle Phares printed on cotton fabric.

This shirt made in Ms. Phares's panels was the the featured garment for the May Sew Confident club. A subscription service that provides kits,, instructional videos, etc. to paying members. I am not a member of the club and already had the pattern so I went out to Noelle Phares's Etsy shop and bought 4 panels that were different than the ones offered in the kits. It was a fun exercise to lay out the pattern on the panels so that the blocks of color were pleasing in the finished shirt. This pattern is basically a boxy shirt with extended shoulders and the different flanges. The pattern envelope suggested a size medium for my body measurements. I made a size small because I do not like massive ease ( 6 inches for a size medium) in any garments I wear, even oversize ones.
