I’m excited to share my latest pattern with you today, a free T-Shirt Pattern for girls in sizes 3 to 14!
(*updated 3/18 to add size 14 to the pattern. (I’ll be updating the text on the photos very soon.)
I’ve been working on this free t-shirt pattern off and on for several months. (Started in the fall.) I would get motivated work on it for a day; then put it aside for more exciting projects. Of course, I would forget everything I’d done and would have to start again.
The t-shirt pattern has gone through many changes: shirt width, length, armhole depth, gathered sleeves/not gathered sleeves, but I’ve finally I’ve settled on the fit. Not too slim, but not too wide. Currently, the pattern includes a long sleeve version, short sleeve, and 3/4 length cut lines. I plan to add a flutter style short sleeve as well. I’ll create a new post for the flutter sleeve top, so keep your eye out for the update!
(Not a follower? Be sure to sign up for my weekly newsletter here– I send it out almost every week, and it includes my latest posts, free patterns, yummy recipes and sometimes links to great sales and giveaways.)
**update**: I released the flutter sleeve top as a separate pattern here: Flutter Sleeve T-Shirt Pattern.

We’ve been baby chicken sitting for some friends. Oh my goodness, these little chicks are just too cute!
I have a hard time keeping their names straight. I think we were playing with Teeny and Fluffy in these pictures. (We have two more named Buck and Brownie.) We’ll be so sad to send them back to their forever home.

I think I could figure out how to size this for my little 18 mo. old! It would be perfect! Thanks so much for this tutorial!
Jamie says
T-shirts are fairly easy to make if you are confident working with knits. I’m sure you could make your own pattern with a well fitting tee. good luck!

Where do you get the cute fabrics?
Jamie says
The owl fabric came from Joann’s and the striped fabric either came from Girl Charlee or Funkalicious Fabrics. The ribbed knit for the neckline came from fabric fairy.
