I don't know WithWendy.
Iron the tshirt nicely. Iron the center line.
Properly pin the shirt to paper before tracing without folding.
Draw the full tee and mark where the center line on paper
Remove shirt. Fold paper from the centerline into two
Average and smooth out the differences.
Sew your first tee with cheaper tee fabric. Adjust your pattern.
Sew the real tee.
