Heirloom Alex Shirt

We envisioned this heirloom style shirt for a classic choice for your formal occasions or wedding attire. We altered the Alex shirt to feature these fine laces and trims and simply paired with some linen shorts. Basic heirloom techniques of lace piecing and pin tucks are used to create this exquisite bubble for your little one. Many of these techniques are featured in our Learn to Sew: 4 Thimbles Video Lesson.
