Person with blue bangs and blue glasses in an orange shirt with a half-finished shirt over it patterned with crabby seagulls.

Person from the back, same shirt, crabby seagulls on the sleeves and yoke, rest of the back is a white fabric.

Crabby Seagull #CameronButtonUp just needs the collar, hemming, and buttons, I am already crazy excited to wear it - the back is scrap fabric, so I only had to buy 1 meter of custom fabric. Look how crabby they are!

Price info for the curious: the pattern was $37 CAD and 1 meter of 55" wide fabric (I'm making a #CameronButtonUp and can mix with cheaper solid color if necessary) was $33 CAD (includes tax and shipping but was $18 off for my first fabric order.)

Smiling person with blue glasses and blue bangs in a shirt that has a rainbow stripe front, white collar, and white sleeves with rainbow edges.

My #CameronButtonUp is finished except for buttons! I sewed 5 sleeves in total and had to re-do the entire front but learned so much along the way. Especially proud of the sleeves. Had Esme from Great British (more)

Person standing holding fabric that's rainbow colored with stripes of white between each colour. Black and white drawing on the wall behind them. Person has blue bangs and blue glasses and a blue polka dot colar, black and white stripes on their shirt.

The next #CameronButtonUp shirt by Helen's Closet can commence - the fabric has arrived (Fableism Wings Cotton Rainbow). This will involve a LITTLE bit of pattern matching for the stripes, wish me luck...

Person standing with their back to the camera. Shirt has black and white polka dot collar. Top and sleeves of shirt are teal, with a black back, making it look a bit like a Star Trek: The Next Generation uniform.

Fabric by Fableism called "Wings Cotton - Rainbow" which features stripes of rainbow colors separated by a white stripe between them.

The #CameronButtonUp that was repurposed from a failed skirt project is finished! Chunky white buttons, polka-dots, I AM HAPPY. Next up: another Cameron shirt, made with Fableism Wings Cotton Rainbow.

Person in a button down shortsleeve shirt, polka dots and solid black with teal sleeves. Blue bangs, blue glasses frames.

Person holding a skirt up to their waist, polka dots and solid black pattern.

The #CameronButtonUp is almost finished! Just the buttons and bottom hem to do and it's ready to wear. I'm actually thrilled the skirt was a failure, making a success of this shirt has given me a TON of cool future (1/2)

Person wearing blue pants, black t-shirt and a half-made front of a button down shirt over the t-shirt, which is half black and half black and white polka dots.

Person wearing a half-finished button down shirt as seen from the back, top is teal, bottom is black.

The #CameronButtonUp so far! The front (which was cut from a failed skirt) looks fabulous, turns out the back WAS too good to be true (it was ever so slightly off centre) so now I'm a member of the Enterprise YAY

Person holding a skirt against their waist.

Front pieces for the #CameronButtonUp shirt are cut! The disappointing skirt is proving to be an excellent source of scrap fabric. This time I WILL take credit for the way the solid black flows, SO EXCITED TO SEW THIS

#SewAndTell #SewSky #Sewing #Sewer #Sew #MeMade #FatSewingClub #GarmentSewing

credit for the placement of the solid black fabric, that was an absolute lucky fluke that I am THRILLED with. Very pleased to have discovered that the #CameronButtonUp by Helen's Closet will serve as the perfect T-shirt replacement. (2/2)

Success! I'm at the end of my sewing budget for the month so I'm cannibalizing failed projects. This skirt was a massive disappointment, but as the back of my #CameronButtonUp it's going to be GORGEOUS. (I take no (1/2)

#cameronbuttonup Button procrastination. The worst part of sewing? #sewsky #garmentsewing

Tall white man with grey hair wearing a blue and white daisy patterned shirt sleeved shirt.

Here is the @helenscloset.bsky.social #cameronbuttonup that I cut out for my husband on Sunday all finished. Added 4 inches to the length because he is tall. The man loves his loud shirts. #sewing #sewsky #garmentsewing

Button up shirt

My third finished garment project of the year (still need to take photos of number one and two. ) pattern is the Cameron Button Up from Helen's Closet. Fabric is Quilter's Showcase from Joann because I like it and I don't gatekeep fabric. #cameronbuttonup #helensclosetpatterns #joannfabrics
