Simple sleeveless shirt

I just sewed a very simple summer shirt because it's been quite hot. Here is what it looks on my beloved Glenda the dress form. (I am a bit larger than Glenda, so it fits me better.) 


Like with any sewing projects, it starts out with cutting the fabric. 

I decided to put a little opening in the front. 

This is after finishing the shoulder and side seams. The next step is to finish the arm and neck openings with a bias tape I made with the same fabric. The finished product is on the top of the page.
