OK Wendy, workin' up a design for the back

ATP - Good to hear from you :D

Dawn, I must confess - I did not sew that shirt. I wanted a plain white or ivory shirt, natural fiber with a square bottom hem. This was the closest I found, it had 3 embroidery lines running up each side. Took me 3 hours with a seam ripper to get rid of them :lol:

Bill, I think you're right. There is too much negative space at the bottom of the shirt but I didn't want to fill it 'cuz it would take away from the mask. Trim around the bottom hem is a great solution.
