Notes Made of cotton shirting.

Notes:
Would cut interfacing so there is only a single layer in collar and cuffs. The way they tell you to do it in the instructions, you end up with doubled interfacing, and it makes the collar too stiff.

Also, the way the instructions tell you to attach the collar is weird and results in the raw edge being on the outside. While the seam is covered by the collar, the back collar is barely long enough even after I trimmed down the seam allowance.

Because it is woven and has no fastenings (you slip it on over your head), it does take a bit of wriggling to get it on and off, but it's not too bad.

Would definitely make again, just with the aforementioned alterations.

    I quite like the bigger collar, especially in this stripe - nice top!

    Thanks! No, I didn't make any alterations (and as far as I'm aware, I didn't make any mistakes!), but the collar did come out bigger than it appears in the drawing.

    Do you add length to the collar?
