The Clara shirt is a timeless and versatile design that you can fully customize to your liking. You can choose between a Cuban collar or a collarless version, depending on the look you want to create. Go for sleeveless or short sleeves, and optionally add a wide sleeve cuff for extra length and a playful touch.

The different pocket options—from large flap pockets to a small rounded chest pocket, with or without a subtle ruffle—give you complete freedom to define your own style. With color blocking options, such as contrasting hems, sleeve cuffs, and pocket trims, you can create endless variations.

Clara is also flexible in length: you can choose from four hem lengths, including a rounded hem that works perfectly for a dress version. The straight, slightly relaxed fit offers comfort and creates a clean, modern silhouette that suits a variety of body types. Clara feels comfortable without losing its shape and has a contemporary, wearable look.

This design is also available in kid's sizes under the name 'COLOMBIA shirt & dress', and there's a similar men’s shirt design called CUBA shirt’

 

Fabric choice

Clara offers a wide range of fabric possibilities. Choose lightweight, fluid fabrics such as viscose, tencel, or fine cotton for a soft, flowing look. Prefer more structure? Opt for slightly heavier fabrics like cotton, chambray, or linen for a more boxy appearance. Heavier or more wintery fabrics also work beautifully for Clara, making it a pattern you can use throughout the seasons. The final result will vary depending on your fabric choice.

WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND WASHING YOUR FABRIC BEFORE CUTTING.


Level

Clara is designed with ease of sewing in mind. The techniques are kept as simple and efficient as possible, making this a quick and satisfying project. If you have never sewn a shirt before, this is an ideal pattern to start with. The simplest version— without a collar, pockets, or cuffs—is perfect for learning the basics. From there, you can gradually add more details at your own pace.

 

Fit

Clara has a straight, relaxed fit with a slightly oversized feel and no bust dart. The wide sleeves enhance the boxy silhouette, which also results in deeper armholes (something to consider for the sleeveless version). The dress version features generous side slits for ease of movement. Thanks to the different lengths, necklines and pocket options, you can easily adapt the look to your style.

 

Notions

Fabric requirements 

The fabric lengths charts show how much fabric you will need for all variations, calculated on a standard fabric width of 140 cm - 1.55 yd. If your fabric is narrower, you will need more fabric length. For broader or narrower fabrics you can calculate how much fabric you will need by laying out the pattern pieces on the table according to your fabric width and measuring how much fabric length you will need accordingly.

great product
Style: AVR-S770H
I bought the Denon S770H to replace my 20 year old Optimus receiver. I wasn't looking to go crazy on cost but wasn't afraid to put up a little extra money either so I chose middle of the road for Denon. When I put this in my cart I was expecting to pay $649 plus but was pleasantly surprised to see a $200 price drop by the time I pulled the trigger on the purchase. Product came quick and I set it up the next day. I am only using the 5.1 set up at this time but the way the on screen set up walks you through everything it is a breeze. The AVR analyzes each speaker position individually to optimize the settings and provides the best balances possible. This receiver takes my old speakers to a new level of enjoyment without buying anything else (at this time). Watching a Football game it makes the sound come as though you are actually in the stadium. Love it! Still haven't tried all of the options for inputs yet, but I'm sure there will not be any disappointments. I would highly recommend Denon.

Great for UTV rear light install!
Size: 16AWG -10FT 2Pin DT
I had a set of 3” Nilight pod lights with wiring harness to install as rear lights on my Ranger 570 SP. The Nilight harness with relay was great! But it was too short to keep the relay and fuse in the front compartment on the pulse panel. These were the perfect solution! The extensions are plugged in under the tunnel to each of the individual light leads from the Nilight harness. And there was just enough length to run behind the seat back, up the driver side roll bar, and to each light. (Had about 1’ too much for passenger side light, so should be fine for full-size Ranger too.) Now have a weatherproof, factory quality installation with no splices or solder joints. The only mods I had to make for the entire install (not related to these extension cables) were: 1) Cutting the ring lugs off and adding waterproof heat shrink butt splices to Polaris pulse plug, and 2) Buying a factory-style Carling L1 illuminated switch to replace the round switch provided. (This is a direct plug and play too since the Nilight switch wiring has 1/4” faston connectors.)

Exactly what I needed
Size: 16AWG -10FT 2Pin DT
This was perfect for me. I had two lights bars in my rear bumper and needed to extend the harness to my fuse block. Great value

Affordable
Size: 16AWG -10FT 2Pin DT
Used them to install Morimoto 2 Banger pods on my vehicle. Casing for the wires is thick enough that will stand the weather and abrasion. I spliced them to make just one run, added braided sleeving (for looks and additional protection). The wire quality and thickness made the connection with waterproof connectors strong and durable. Saved me around 20 dollars as compared to brand name wires.
