Buttons are on! It looked a little weird on my dress form (as it is really for tops only) with the full gear so here it is standalone.
I believe I am the first person to tackle this shirt and complete it, so that feels pretty neat!
The shirt came together shockingly quickly; about 4 hours flat. Which for a button down, is really fast for me.
I tried to follow the grain as best I could, but the pockets are upside down, hah!
but I do have the contrast stitching on the collar, the correct thin bias placket, cuffs grain running perpendicular to the sleeves, the return edge of the darker fabric on the placket and pockets.
I was also able to get a hemming foot for my Juki, so I did a 1/4 rolled hem on the bottom.
it seems the color of the fabric photographs reallt closely to the prop store photos (which I sampled the colors from) so that is
Mark provided some fantastic reference of the first shirt I tackled, so with the new found confidence of this shirt, I may tackle that one again too!
