Buttonholes indeed come last
I admit I had to learn the hard way... buttonholes should be done last.
You are wondering what exactly did I do?
First, although they are all in line, they are off center by just a tad. I goofed my placement. Enough that I know and care.
Second, I somehow messed up the plackets. I can't figure it out because the collar fit perfectly. I'm still racking my brain on this one. Inside the shirt I can see interfacing and it must be a huge mistake that I can't put my finger on. When I went to tack down the facing it was too short to cover the seam allowance. Why??
Maybe I need to make another shirt to figure it out because I am DONE working on this one, that's for sure.
I wouldn't have been able to complete this shirt without "Easy Guide to Sewing Blouses" by Connie Long. Excellent reference! I will use these instructions instead of pattern instructions from now on.
On another note, I hate my camera.
