We go camping as well, but the way we do it (just a 4x4 and we also sleep inside) space to store things are an issue.<br />ThereseTheresehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15684506244403622017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6568954677244979878.post-62828878712808501912017-04-22T23:12:37.018+01:002017-04-22T23:12:37.018+01:00Thanks for your reply.

I didn't remove the back yoke, I only removed the sleeves and narrowed the width of the shoulder seams so that the sleeves would sit at the right placement on my shoulders. The newly cut armholes were a bit gaping, so I added the higher bust dart to eliminate that excess. The slim fit shirt was just that (slim), so by cutting off the button bands and then adding back in the inverted pleat, I was left with the same fit through the bust area since the added pleated fabric was approximately the same measurement as what I cut off, and the extra amount of fabric at the base of the insert gave the tunic more room for movement around the hip area. I hope that makes sense!<br />Susan @ Second Chances by Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08103499001328027142noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6568954677244979878.post-28996073000317653062017-04-22T18:37:05.289+01:002017-04-22T18:37:05.289+01:00I love this design.

If you cut it off, the shirt doesn't seem to have suffered any shortening. Weren't the armholes openings too low when you cut the sleeves off? The side seams still seem to be well placed and not thrown backwards by the insertion of the pleat, how did you do that?whatthesewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14151920559218997906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6568954677244979878.post-73014842452471690802017-04-22T03:40:45.533+01:002017-04-22T03:40:45.533+01:00Love it all - the colours, the inverted pleat, the...Love it all - the colours, the inverted pleat, the checks, the buttons ... love it :)jenny_ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15475480579733466963noreply@blogger.com
