Classic shirt heaven! Don’t Fear the Tower Placket! Laon (Itch to Stitch)

I sewed the Laon Shirt from Itch to Stitch, and I’m in love with the fit! With princess seams and cup sizes A–DD, it came together beautifully. In this video, I’m sharing how I sew the sleeve tower placket step by step, plus a peek at my test muslin where I checked the fit before committing to my final fabric. Come sew along with me!

The Laon shirt from Itch to Stitch comes in sizes 00-40US & cups A-DD. It's 20% off through Tuesday 13th January, 2026. This is my affiliate link: https://itch-to-stitch.com/product/la...
