The Great White Shirt – Part 2

Let’s try this again! Hopefully, my blog will cooperate today and I will be able to give you the tutorial for this project. I wore it for the first time today and I was gratified to see how many people admired it. Even my students admired the shirt and asked about it. It turned into a great economics lesson. I know I also made many of them feel better about the fact that they too shop in thrift stores.
