Get caught up with part 1 here:    • How to Make an 18th century Shirt- Part 1   The shirt served as the inner most garment and was worn throughout history to protect the outer clothing from the dirt and oil of the body. It was constructed using simple stitches from squares and rectangles and most commonly made of bleached, unbleached, checked & sometimes striped linen. This garment was meant to be washed rigorously after wearing so durable stitches were prioritized to make sure the shirt would last. This sew along is meant as a companion to our shirt pattern sizes S/M - 4X/5X: (we added an extra size!) https://burnleyandtrowbridge.com/coll... but the techniques we demonstrate are perfect for any 18th century shirt in the works!
