This was the first blouse I made with this pattern. The collar threw me a bit, because I always have to cut down the back of shirts by about half an inch, so for the extra room, I need to add collar length. Im never good at it, and my collars are always either too long or too short.

This one was too long, so I had to cut it down while I was constructing it.

Below is the collar detail, and the blouse's back pleat.

I have gone back to using tailor's tacks, and I dont know why I stopped. They work so well for marking!
